Wearing a bike helmet should be encouraged under ANY circumstances. Adults are obligated to set a good example for teens and children. One of my firm’s clients is Kennedy Krieger Institute in Baltimore, where they treat TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury) in children. Trust me, wear bike helmets!
Next item, how about stopping at red lights? I’m a biker, and I stop at red lights, and stop signs. How uncool, as my friends ride ahead. But I’m cool with sending the message that when it comes to compliance with the law, with cars and bikes sharing the road, it’s a two-way street.
