So Im trying to stay fit and going on bike rides. Yet I dont want to get stopped by a cop saying its illegal for me to ride my bike. Anyways.. what is NJ law on helmets? :/ The guy at the store said 14 and under and then people keep saying 17 and under. WHICH IS IT?
But really, wear a helmet regardless of the law. Think it looks dorky? Try having your head split open down the side or being brain damaged because you didn't want your hair messed up. I'll always wear a helmet, because they've most likely saved my life twice. Once, the helmet actually broke in two pieces and that would have been my skull. Don't wear kneepads, though. That DOES look really weird if you're older than like, five. And actually makes it harder to pedal. [ LM's advice column | Ask LM A Question ]
