That is fucking wrong. Things are headed a bad way it seems. Id rather it was finable not to wear a helmet than it to have implications on liability in collisions/incidents.
What if you simply cannot afford a helmet? I know I cant find a helmet that fits me that I can afford, and it says everywhere that a poorly fitting helmet is useless.
It also makes no sense and is a completely inbalanced judgement. Should we be found liable for broken ribs because we never wore chest armour which is readily available on the market?
