Now, a cycling group is pushing for a new plan to repeal the legal requirement to wear helmets on bicycles.

The organization, in a report on Wednesday, said that more than 17-year-old should be able to choose whether to wear a helmet while riding on its own and safe areas.

The group`s chief executive, Craig Richards, said the number of bicycle casualties per year has not been reduced by wearing helmets. When wearing a helmet in a car accident, there was no reduction in fatality due to wearing a helmet.

Our advice is to get people in a low-risk environment

拥有是否佩戴头盔的自由选择权！

该组织表示人们在沙滩或者小径这种低风险区域骑行时，需要的并不是那冷冰冰的头盔。

自行车骑行的最终目的就是自由！

人们希望在骑自行车时放飞自我从而体验到真正的快乐！如今60%的自行车骑手呼吁改变法规！

不希望有警察来提醒他们带上头盔！该组织也表示希望政府放宽强制性法律并进行为期五年的实验

澳大利亚是世界上仅有的两个拥有强制性自行车头盔法的国家之一(另一个是美国)。

然而戏剧性的是该组织在20世纪90年代是支持引入自行车头盔安全法的。

但是，最近他们对这一法项进行了为期14个月的审查。结果就是他们发现骑行车带着头盔似乎并没有对安全有多大的提升...

So they want the government to revisit the law.
