I wish that these organizations would realize that starting off with
"the big lie" does nothing for their position. In fact it weakens their
position.
The big lie: "...in particular it reduces cyclist numbers..." has been
disproven so many times that they should be embarrassed to repeat it.
Adults can decide the level or risk that they are willing to accept.
There is no upside in promulgating the lies that helmet legislation
and/or promotion reduces cycling numbers or that helmets are ineffective
at reducing the severity of head injuries in head-impact crashes.
Oh man that is so rich, you of all people calling someone else a liar!
Cheers
