[quote=Anonymous]We live right by a bike trail in VA and our neighborhood is a bit of a cut through for 2 sections of it. I am amazed by the people on bikes without helmets who go flying through intersections and ignore stop signs. Since the days of driving my kids to preschool my kids would ask why those people aren’t wearing helmets. I one time said - because they are not smart. Now whenever they see people riding without helmets they yell out - you should really wear a helmet. I did have to teach them to say it wasn’t “safe” instead of saying it isn’t smart. It is muscle memory for them already at 5 and 7. We never have to ask them to put on helmets. They go to get a scooter or bike they put the helmet on. I also think it helps that their dad is an avid biker and always always wears a helmet. [/quote]
