Before we blindly accept the spin produced by Big Helma, we would do well to remember that statistics can be manipulated to produce a varying array of results including those substantiating the claims of helmet promoters.
It is a serious act to remove a person's autonomy to choose for themselves how they will manage their lives, yet Big Helma ruthlessly succeeded in convincing our governments to do so.
Twenty years later and underpinned by our devotion to oil, the fundamental fanaticism of Mandatory Helmet Laws (MHLs) continues to dictate the terms of our transport culture.
