I don't think my one instance constitutes as a 'crackdown' in itself, however every time I tell someone about it I hear about someone else who's gotten one around here recently. I know of one messenger who got like 3 in a month before breaking down & buying a leather hairnet (that I guess counts as a helmet?)
Apparently it has been going around more-so recently than any other time I can think of, so I thought some may find it useful to know that enforcement is a reality & not simply overlooked as it has been for the past 7 years or so. I've done countless urban miles in this time, many of which were sans-helmet & had never once even had a second glance before my ticket last week.
