if we, the riding community, do not police ourselves, then the government eventually will.


We must have had helmet laws for more than 30 years and for a good few years now first time licence holders are limited to 250cc bikes.

Even bicyclists have to wear helmets. (Different of course to m/bikes).

We however since year dot have been able to have a car licence at 15 years of age. Lots of opinions recently in having it raised but seemingly it was first allowed for countryside kids to get to school and it appears the reason still remains. However more and more 15 and 16 year olds city kids are writing themselves off in daddies high powered cars.
