Yes, car drivers should likely have 5 point harnesses, helmets, and
head/neck
restraints. They'd be a lot safer that way. Good luck with that crusade,

I dig, but have no interest in any crusades, just don't want to hear about
all the biker head injuries when they occur everywhere in real life, not
just on bikers.

people you don't know.
It may well affect them, its still choice, like smoking, hunting, or
whatever. We cannot go through life without risk.
