Very Interesting Motorcycle Safety Study from Florida Universities

The really weird part of this study is the conclusion that mandatory helmet laws actually save lives. And, yet, so many riders ignore that when going for a ride. I am not really for or against mandatory laws like this, but I do know that simply forcing people to wear seatbelts has saved hundreds of thousands of lives. It sucks that we have to have a law about it, but that is the only way it works, unfortunately. The other part which makes it a bit more interesting is the lower non-fatal accidents in areas with higher speed limits. This has a double meaning of sorts, though, so you should read it...it is good.
