In New Hampshire, people younger than 16 are required to wear a helmet when riding a bicycle but not when riding on a motorcycle.
If you ever fell off a bicycle and smacked your head against the curb, while wearing a helmet as I have, you'll definately wear a helmet in the future.
Any chance there's a NH legislator reading this who could submit a bill to address this situation?

FLL, I hope you got a new helmet after hitting your head with the one you were wearing. It will not be any good after a single impact or if the seam tape has become worn or damaged, but you are 100% correct about wearing a helmet when bicycling.
Transporting a child/minor on a motorcycle without them wearing a helmet is, well, stupid.
