[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A colleague of mine was recently rendered a quadriplegic because a car door opened as he was going by on a scooter. Two lessons: 1) WEAR A DAMN HELMET when riding a scooter, even though it is not always the law 2) Always, always, always check your surroundings before opening a car door, especially when you are opening your door into the street. [/quote] paralyzation is caused by an injury to the spinal cord. Wearing a helmet wouldn’t have changed that—that prevents head injuries (which could cause you to have the functioning of an6 year old for example). That said, I think it’s common sense to wear a helmet, and like jerry Seinfeld says, a head that doesn’t want to protect itself is a head not worth saving. [/quote]
