It will be boring to listen or hear the same old story all the time from everybody, but it's a fact that you should always wear a helmet on bikes and seat belts in cars, now a days, in busy traffics and all we should be very careful about our lives, donno when what is happening, so we should understand this and share with others too, we can't loose our dear ones. "Prevention is better than cure" always, some people neglect this though se advise them but seriously tell them, they don't think that we are telling about their own life. Try this and save the people around us.

That's true with the growing numbers of people who had accidents in motorbikes here it's really a must to wear helmets. They have to be strict because of such accidents and it's a good thing for them to do.

I always remind my son to put on the seatbelt whenever we go out in the car. He always forgets.

More deaths are now caused by riding motorcyles without helmets. The enforcers should be more strict.

Driving is a dangerous but necessary activity. Some individuals are careless when on the road. The safety of others should be a concern of all drivers. Could not wearing seatbelts or helmets be hazardous to others besides the driver?

my biggest pet peeve is when parents do not adjust helmets properly...its almost like not wearing a helmet at all as when a collision occurs the helmet will slip...sometimes completely off.

my children are required to wear a helmet even (OR in my opinion especially) when riding a scooter. Those scooter go so fast and there is no stability or control if you hit a rock as the wheels are plastic and inflexible where bikes would just roll over a pebble.

I always tell the kids

"Helmets are not for the hundred times you dont fall, it's for the ONE time you do"

Seatbelts are mandatory, therefore you don't have a choice to put them on unless you want to end up with a fine. But helmets seem to be really neglected by the bikers. There are usually awareness campaigns, though no one pays any attention to them most of the time. My kids always wear their helmets but I guess we can't really do much about other people. As they say, it always starts at home...

Sad to say, it's almost seeming to me to become a sort of "survival of the fittest (or smartest, in this case)" with seatbelts and helmets. I can't tell you how many of my friends simply REFUSE to do it and I worry about them all the time. I think it's soooo dumb!! Okay, so not wearing one yourself is one thing, but the thing I REALLY cannot stand is when people don't tell their KIDS to wear them. I think that is just selfish.. what if the child gets hurt or gets killed? I say, hurt yourself if you must, but don't do that to innocent ones!!
