Closed petition Make cycle helmets compulsory for under 14's
Closed on
As with seat belts, children below the age of 14 cannot be expected to make an informed decision on their safety with regards wearing head protection.
Making this law would remove the stigma of wearing them for children as all children would be required by law.
