Says you, who doesn't have to deal with Mandatory Helmet Laws and has made the choice to wear one anyway. I would have thought it was fairly clear by now that there are a fair number of committed loons arguing that helmets will:

1. save children
2. save on hospital care / insurance costs
3. allow car drivers to smash into cyclists

Luckily I no longer live in a MHL province (of Canada) but I just returned from a week and a half in Nova Scotia (where I rode happily without a helmet and luckily encountered no busybodies). But I resent the fact that some cop can slap me with several hundred dollars of fine and an optional confiscation of my bicycle if he fears that I won't make the payment.

These laws need to be repealed unless the Helmet Nazis can actually produce convincing evidence to justify such swingeing intervention into our personal lives. They're not going to be repealed as long as lies are being spread about the effectivenes of helmets.
