What's the legal penalty for riding without one where they are required?

Alabama has the helmet law, I believe the penalty is $150, a friend of mine got written up this past summer, he was wearing a non DOT egg shell, but the trooper wrote him a no helmet ticket!...I need to protect my good looks so I wear one!

Politics, helmet laws, religion and Unions. It is a personal thing with no correct answer and always brings up hostile debates.

No Helmets in Indiana, don't want one, don't wear one on the Roadstar. Funny thing is I think I actually have a helmet fetish! I am always buying new mx helmets I have some really cool ones some with custom paint, 19 yrs of racing and I've kept them all. Always wear one on the dirt, not on the road, I guess I should know better.

In all Mexico country you need wearIT by the law, and the fine is about 50 usd.....

In my town, because we are on the beach and too much sun (I think) usually the cops dont bother you if you not wear it.

Personally I like to wear it, I have 5 helmets and depends of the kind of my ride I choose one (beannie, half,3/4, full) I dont ride without helmet by convicction...

No need to be sorry. It is always a popular topic. Just ususally ends up getting locked when someone decides their point of view is the only one and things get heated. It can be a lively discussion when everyone remembers "no matter how thin the pancake, there are always two sides"
