This is cute you really think they care what we wantSo why dont "WE THE PEOPLE" actually try to do something about this? How about calling or writing the people in charge of writing this bill and saying NO!
I'm sure your either on facebook, Instagram or some other social mast media sites, go and spread the news to call or write and say NO helmet law!!! It doesn't matter what state your in, we all need to come together NOW as one people!
Side by sides continue to ruin the desert experience for the rest of us.
Nice job.
It says for vehicles designed primarily for off road use, I think Jeeps and trucks are safe from this.If someone would argue what the difference is between a sand rail and a car off-road is valid. If you must wear a helmet in a sand car off-road than you could make the argument that you should have to wear a helmet off-road in a street legal car. The sand-rail is actually safer structurally than a street legal car. Are you going to require jeepers/trucks etc.... to carry a helmet around in case they want to head up a fire road? Where does the line in the sand end?
You can't trust what any politician says.It says for vehicles designed primarily for off road use, I think Jeeps and trucks are safe from this.
Don’t forget booties, poop bag, portable water bowl, seat belt and a life vest for your LabradoodleAlso wear your lanyard!
Agreed.You can't trust what any politician says.
To be clear no I do not wear a helmet to load or unload. The government telling me what I can or can’t do would bother me yes. I was just simply stating I don’t mind having to wear a helmet.So you put one on when loading and unloading your machine?
Does the government removing your right to chose to wear one or not bother you?

At that point give me the ticket.People have been written tickets for loading or cruising around their camp without a helmet is the reason I ask.
And then it leades to the gas can not being compliant , the glass bottle of wine and ends with the dui ! Opens so many overreaching problems .People have been written tickets for loading or cruising around their camp without a helmet is the reason I ask.
Hopefully this causes all the SXS owners to move to AZ, UT, and ID.
They’ve been fucking the desert up for us dirtbike guys long enough.
They voted for the idiots that come up with this stuffWhere do the citizens of the State get to vote on this?
The proposal doesn't talk about the registry. It only speaks of the intended design. Last I checked a 4WD Vehicle was designed for off-road applications, lol. The problem is this leaves the interpretation up to law enforcement. It's as clear as mud!I think youd be OK as your Jeep would be road registered.

Made it better for my family. Now they get to see most of the places I love riding my motorcycle.Side by sides continue to ruin the desert experience for the rest of us.
Nice job.
Be that as it may, side by sides have increased accessibility and visitation to areas that many of us go because there isn't much accessibility and visitation. With that increased visitation comes increased regulation.Made it better for my family. Now they get to see most of the places I love riding my motorcycle.
You do understand somewhere there is a person on a horse saying the same thing about a hiker . A hiker saying it about a person on a bike . A person on a bike running his month about a guy on a motorcycle and on and on. Maybe everybody should lighten up and just be happy people are outside enjoying freedom .Be that as it may, side by sides have increased accessibility and visitation to areas that many of us go because there isn't much accessibility and visitation.

Besides, folks like you are largely the exception. My ire is directed more toward those obnoxious clowns who think they are big bad ass offroad and party types. The ones who otherwise couldn't afford to obtain and operate nor have the skills to maintain/drive a real offroad car. The side by sides have now enabled every dirtbag who can sign on a dotted line to head on out and screw things up for the rest of us.
Now we have to go further out to get away from them, but the regulations still follow. Yay.
With the never ending stream of restrictions, is it really freedom though?You do understand somewhere there is a person on a horse saying the same thing about a hiker .

Maybe everybody should lighten up and just be happy people are outside enjoying freedom .
At least I let my opinion be known today! What did you do? We can all sit behind a computer and type away while bitching as we lose our freedoms slowly. But if you haven't noticed, we are losing our freedoms more quickly by the months here lately. So why you go and make a smart ass remark, you could have tried to do something that makes a difference!This is cute you really think they care what we want
We do. And his poor family would likely have to BK.Let me ask a hypothetical question. Say a family goes out to Cal City over the Thanksgiving holiday like so many families do. Their kid gets into an accident on an OHV and cracks his head open on a rock. He's rushed to the ER, but come to find out no one in his family has any kind of health insurance whatsoever. Who pays for it in California?
Serious question, I don't know the answer.

Mostly because I couldn’t fit in my car with a helmet on.I can’t understand why anyone wouldn’t want to wear a helmet while flying along in the desert/dunes. The human skull can only take a certain amount of contact before things go bad.
Can’t fit in car with a helmet on might want a taller cage. Belts stretch and head will hit roll cage if it’s that tight.Mostly because I couldn’t fit in my car with a helmet on.
Also I have over $1k in headsets which would need to be replaced.

You are talking gibberish.Can’t fit in car with a helmet on might want a taller cage. Belts stretch and head will hit roll cage if it’s that tight.
Rent free in your head.Look at it this way, there are fewer people to rest their drinks on your car that far out there.
Rent free in your head.
Isn't that the line you like to use?
You need to have 3-4 inches of head clearance between head and cage for seat belt harness stretch in rollover.You are talking gibberish.
Tell me you have no idea what you are talking about without saying “I have no idea what I am talking about”
I have 3-4” now but with a helmet I won’t. did you skip 3rd grade geometry?You need to have 3-4 inches of head clearance between head and cage for seat belt harness stretch in rollover.
If wearing a helmet and your head hits with it on I doubt there’s 3-4 inches clearance in your cage
Sure the sleek cages look better but possibly at cost of safety.I doubt you have the same belts and seats as a true race car or driving with belts as tight as you think. But do as you do.
Well, you appear to be the one quoting my posts and interjecting into conversations that don't involve you, so maybe it's you and not me? It's okay, brother. I just hope this strange obsession doesn't cause you too many marital problems...The technical term would be sarcasm with a side of irony.
It seems that UTV owners, sweaty boat guests getting sweat on your boat, and thirsty people resting their drink on your stuff live in your head since you keep blaming them because you can’t enjoy yoreself.
Maybe it’s you, not them?

I’m in a car, you can’t just bolt on a bigger cage, it’s a fab job strip the car and powder coat. Not to mention the cost of helmets and new head sets.
But by all means, please keep expressing your points of ignorance. I love it when people double down on stupid.
I gave you some time to finish your edits before responding. Got to give ol' quick wits the opportunity to come back and add in what he didn't think of before he hit the "submit" button.Dude, I’m flattered you wasted that much of yore life to make a meme dragging my family into this and proving my point at the same time.
Cheers!Keep it classy!
Well sounds like you didn’t plan ahead. Maybe a basics is building is in order.I have 3-4” now but with a helmet I won’t. did you skip 3rd grade geometry?

Dragging your family into this? Drama much? I didn't know you took your iPhone 4 that seriously.
If you get hurt so easily, maybe it's time you realize there are certain people here that you should probably just leave alone.
Why you get off on irritating others is really weird.
You argue like a woman.Well sounds like you didn’t plan ahead. Maybe a basics is building is in order.![]()

Lol your the one that had to toss the insults. Instead why don’t you explain why headspace is not important. What can you do to make it work etc?You argue like a woman.
Yet you keep replying after starting with me again, so who is realty proving what point?Keep driving my points home Wiz!
Rent is due soon.
