Default got to see my first motorcycle crash while it happend

coming home around midnight last night, driving the integra, there was a couple on the back of what looked like to be a harley, no helmets at all. They were about 20 ft infront of me driving normally, then the guy makes the widest u-turn ever and hits the curb. it was really dark so all i really saw was the head light going down and bouncing. I stopped to see if they were all right, both of the slack jaw locals were laid out, and the driver got up and said they were fine. I highly doubt that since i saw the muffler RESTING on his old ladies leg. Any who, wear a helmet because when you go down on cement the only thing that breaks is your skull.

Not in FL They just repealed it like 2 years ago...there was some lady who was the big supporter of the no helmet law and she fought like hell to get the law repealed....

The week after the law was passed, she died in a motorcycle accident and she would have survived (most likely) if she had a helmet on

I used to be one of those guys that didn't wear his helmet. After losing friends that would have lived if they had helmets on i decided that maybe it was time to put one on for good. I here alot of people making-up stuid excuses like "i don't wear it when i'm in town" or " its too hot to wear it" Its stupid crap like that, that makes me wonder how'd they like to learn how to have to walk again or feed or dress themselves. lifes short enough
