Helmet Law Under Debate In Michigan

Bikers in Michigan may get the choice whether to wear a helmet or not.

Legislation passed the Michigan House 69-39 Wednesday afternoon. The bill will now go to the Michigan Senate.

Similar attempts were vetoed by the state’s former governor. If the legislation passes, it would allow riders 21 and older to go helmet-free if they meet required insurance and experience thresholds.

Many bikers think it should be up to the biker whether to wear a helmet.

Right now in Colorado, helmets are only required for those 18 and younger.
