...and the rest of the story....as Paul Harvey would say......

Did ya know that the young girl Amelia and her dad never would have been struck if NH had a motorcycle helmet law.

Dad and daughter Amelia on a motorcycle driving from Massachusetts to New Hampshire on Route 93, stopped in the breakdown lane, some time about 1990, to remove his helmet because they were now in New Hampshire. While Massachusetts had a mandatory motorcycle helmet law, New Hampshire did not. If NH had had a mandatory motorcycle helmet law then Dad most likely would not have been stopping to remove his helmet and daughter Amelia would not get struck by a car.

Something for Republican house minority leader, and American Motorcyclist cover boy, Sherm Packard, (state rep, R-Epping) to think about next time he screams "This is simply a solution look'n for a problem!"
