Missouri Helmet Update.
May 2012
ACTION ALERT
ABATE for Missouri has the Helmet bill wording in a Conference Committee. It's on SB719. We need to make some phone calls and have the Helmet Amendment stay on this bill!!Riders 21 and up will be able to have the choice of a helmet or no helmet. It does carry additional medical coverage and is very similar in how the last 7 states have passed bills.
And for everyone out of state – please call also and remind them that you are avoiding riding through the state of Missouri due to the current helmet law and are not spending your tourist dollars in Missouri.

Let's work to keep the language intact!!!
