What is the purpose of car, truck and SUV crash point
standards, if you can jump on a motorcycle without a
helmet and die anyway? It seems kinda silly to have
all these safety requirements in cars but not require
motorcyclists to wear a helmet. In a car you
have all those bumpers, roll bars and sheet metal to protect you
plus seat belts and air bags. On a motorcycle you only have a
helmet if you choose to wear it. The Illinois state law for
mandatory helmets needs to be reinstated.

If seat belts and air bags lower your car insurance,
if you do wear a helmet, it should lower your motorcycle insurance!
Less for insurance to pay if you walk away from an accident due to
wearing your helmet.
From http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/people/outreach/traftech/pub/tt231.html:
Average Number of Motorcycle Operators Killed in Texas by Month, With and Without a Universal Helmet Law, 1975-1998
The evidence from this study supports the GAO conclusion that universal helmet laws are effective. They increase helmet use and decrease motor-cyclists injuries and fatalities.
