This is too bad. Sounds like if she would have had a helmet she would still be alive from the other stories I have read about it.

Sad story.  :(  WTF is this though? "We're going to have a dance, my mom is going to DJ, and I'm not going to pay her," said McFarland. Sounds like some great reporting.

Iowa has a NO HELMET law for motorcycles. IMAGINE THAT!!! Honestly how stupid are you to not wear a helmet on a motor cycle. If you go down at anything faster than 20-30MPH, your a dead man!

im going to start attending the homeowners association meeting to give my thoughts on everything and one will be i think at least every kid should be wearing a helmet  parents are old enoughh to no better but just teaching your kid to hop on all it will take is to hit one of the big pot whole out here at 40

100% agree with Preddy. (shocking, I know :lol:) Used to think otherwise...until I bought a fast bike....and had kids.

For me, I feel unprotected with no helmet on, therefore I don't ride the quad very hard, hence, I have no fun. Not to mention the danger of wrecking with no lid.

Yep Jake, My son is not allowed on his with no helmet.

? Wait, wasn't it you just saying you went out riding down the street riding wheelies w/ out a helmet?

:lol:

I like the chart showing more accidents on Sundays, I bet I can explain it.....



Everyone wants that ONE huge jump before they go home, one last big hurrah... that's when stupidity comes out.
