By the way, If you must have mandatory helmet laws for kids, then require that the PARENTS and other adults biking with kids be required to wear helmets. Drives me nuts when I see a family biking along, with the kids all wearing helmets--under parental orders, I'm sure--but the parents without. Or even more ridiculous is mom wearing one and dad not. So the message is, "Big boy (or girls) don't have to wear helmets."
The best way to get people to wear helmets is for role models -- like parents, bosses, teachers, celebrities, and community leaders -- to wear them.
