Rejected

What the petition asks
Our law states it is ok for our loved ones to ride their bikes on the road without helmets where lorries, buses, cars and motorbikes drive at 30-40 mph. This has caused many deaths and brain injuries. Please sign the petition to make cycle helmets compulsory on roads. Your signature may save a life.
