Save Lives...Support "Freedom of Choice" ABATE of California urges you to get 'letter of support' petitions signed, and volunteer for some campaign work with your local politician to support AB 695 (Author Norby) which would modify the current helmet law to allow riders the right to choosewhether to wear a helmet or not if they are over 18 and have either (1) completed a motorcycle training program or (2) been issued a class M-1 for two years or more.  We should have the right to choose....the current helmet law is  not saving lives !     You can pick up support petitions at the ABATE local 6 meeting, or on line
