Naturaly i think the govt getting involved and making it compulsory is a very bad idea.
But read the above and replace gear with seatbelts and bike with car. Its the same principle and i've never understood why they make such a big deal of not wearing a belt.
Its personal choice.
And i dont think the numbers of people killed by passengers flying out of winscrrens and hitting them is very high is it?
This country would prolly pass such a law if there was any money in it for them to do so.
