Tough choice between liberty and safety, isn't it? It would be interesting to hear from the motorcyclist's family.

Can you imagine how few traffic fatalities we'd have if all of our street cars were equipped like race cars and drivers & passengers outfitted with helmets and nomex? Tough call on where to draw the line. How do you give the individual the feedom to decide how safe they want to be without burdening the rest of the population with a $1,000,000.00 hospital bill if things go wrong? No helmet = automatic DNR? Yep... tough call for sure.
