It's exactly what happens when bad laws become commonplace. <br />It might be worth contacting your local Member of Parliament at this stage and seeing what he/she can do for you. <br />Whatever you decide, I'm behind you 100%.Kathy Francisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3090991993980511979.post-61031557213698069992011-11-08T09:01:35.779+11:002011-11-08T09:01:35.779+11:00NSW doesn't issue exemptions, even if you have...NSW doesn't issue exemptions, even if you have a medical certificate. The logic of stopping people cycling just because they can't wear a helmet is totally bizarre and counter-productive.<br /><br />Unfortunately, people have been brainwashed into believing in helmets.
