Uncomfortable as it might be, I owe mylife to a helmet. Years ago while riding a scooter, I hit a pack of dogsrunning across the road and I was thrown from it. I survived justbecause I was wearing a helmet and spent 3 days and nights at GMC!I have known of a friend of my father, whose scooter was hit frombehind by a Petrol tanker and he was thrown from his two-wheeler.He survived with a cracked helmet, having landed on his head first.I feel that the benefits of wearing a helmet, far outweigh all otherinconveniences. If Goans don't wear helmets, I think that GMC willbefore long, produce a lot of Neurosurgeons! Nagesh Bhatcar: Looking at this from a purely clinical viewpoint, Darwin is right. Some folks are so dumb that they will remove themselves from the gene pool. Looking at this from a non-clinical viewpoint, it seems (to me) that some politicians in Goa are exploiting popular feelings for political gain.
