You all had a good conversation just a bit back about riding with/without gear and how the law might be changed or better enforced. As usual some people want everyone to do what's best from a common sense/safety standpoint. Others want things such that if people want to be stupid, fine just don't charge it to everyone else's account.
How about underage kids? I've seen young kids on the back of Dad, Brother, whoever's motorcycle with no gear at all, or maybe just a helmet. After crashing with gear and knowing what can happen, I think I'd like kids gear to be mandatory under the law.
I think one has a right to be a dumb_ss, but not with their kid's life. Because the kids look up to them, think they're the coolest thing on two legs and just KNOW that they're safe with them. So if one puts them on the bike without helmet, pants, jacket, and at least some decent boots? Then I think the law should be very harsh on them.
I'm not trying to tweak anyone's nose, that's my opinion. What do you think?
