Motorcycling is all about risk avoidance. Best way to avoid risk is to not ride. Riding with no protective gear? Dumb. Riding too fast for conditions? Also dumb. Exposing a passenger to those same risks? Inexcusable. You see it a lot, and it's fairly common for women to get killed riding on the backs of motorcycles. Mostly it's with crotch rockets; the young riders think they're indestructible and take a lot of stupid risks. But it happens with old cruiser riders as well; riding slow lowers risk but it doesn't eliminate it.
A couple of years ago they repealed the helmet law in Michigan. Prior to that, 9 out of 10 Harley riders would be wearing "beanies". Beanies are plastic caps that vaguely resemble helmets but offer no protection. They are intended solely to keep the police happy. OK, so now with the helmet law gone, 8 out of 10 Harley riders are helmet-less. One of ten will be wearing a helmet, typically the half-helmets favored by motorcycle cops (I guess they work if you hit something head-first.). But in any group of ten riders, one of them will be wearing a beanie! What's up with that? Do they actually believe a cheap plastic cap is better than riding bare-headed?
