For some reason, the liberals can't resist
throwing in the tidbit about some study finding that ~97% of bike
fatalities in the City involve riders not wearing a helmet. WTF???

Since new passenger vehicles are going to required to have ESC (Electronic
Stability Control) and bike riders keep claiming that they must be treated
the same as other vehicles, then obviously all new bikes should be also
required to have ESC :-)

Maybe it would greatly reduce accidents and the need for helmets.
