The World Today - Call for repeal of bike helmet laws 16/08/2010

The World Today - Call for repeal of bike helmet laws 16/08/2010: "The supposedly life-saving laws came into effect across Australia almost two decades ago. Now researchers at Sydney University are calling for the legislation which makes it compulsory for bike riders to wear helmets to be repealed.

They say that their analysis of bike accidents shows that the laws have done little to reduce head injuries and that they discourage people from making short trips by bike."
