For those States tired of getting the shaft year after year, find someone
to get one of these bills in:
AN ACT RELATIVE TO THE MODIFICATION OF THE HELMET LAW .
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court
assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows:
SECTION 1. Section 7 of Chapter 90 of the General Laws, as appearing in
the 1998 Official Edition, is hereby adding at the end thereof the
following:-
Notwithstanding any general or special law to the contrary or any of the
provisions above operators, as well as passengers, engaged in the use of
motorized land conveyance vehicles, such as automobiles, trucks, motor
cycles, scooters, shall not be subject to the protective headgear
requirements as subscribed by the Registrar, so long as said persons are
over the age of twenty one years old.
Here is the text of the other bill we wrote in 2001:
Every person operating a motorized land conveyance or riding as a
passenger on a motorized land conveyance or in a device attached to a
motorized land conveyance must wear protective headgear conforming with
such minimum standards and construction as the Registrar may prescribe,
and no person operating a motorized land conveyance shall permit any
other person to ride as a passenger in or on such motorized land
conveyance unless said passenger is wearing protective headgear. |
