Spotted: One Dedicated Racer
 
So, Friday late afternoon, I was heading into Richmond, driving up Boundary Road and I spot this blue EG coming up behind me. Traffic was busy, but not heavy considering it was rush hour. The EG passes me as we're driving by Central park and then we stop at the lights at 49th Ave and that's when I notice the driver in the EG is wearing a helmet!!!....:haha: Not sure why, considering how hot it was that day.....but this is the best picture that I got:

Cop: "So why are you wearing a helmet while driving, sir?"
Driver: "Yeah...umm...I'm warming up for track day..."

if so, not a bad idea...look stupid but better than cracking your head open on the cage if you get in an accident

RenoMan 05-31-2009 02:43 PM

k20a 05-31-2009 02:51 PM

If you get in an accident, ICBC might not give you coverage. Why would you wear a crash helmet unless you planned to get in an accident?

Then I would ask the adjuster: why does my car have bumpers, doors, a roof, airbags, side impact beams, head restraints, seatbelts and DOT approved glass....unless I planned on getting into an accident?


No one here does this for fun? I remember boosting back from mission raceway and I put my helmet on once cause I thought it was funny :D

No one here's ever puts their ski goggles on while driving to the hills either?? lol

jeem2 05-31-2009 09:48 PM

^ hes got u there hahaha

ilvtofu 05-31-2009 10:34 PM

Plus, isn't it more dangerous to drive in regular city traffic with a helmet cos it limits ur visibility? i mean the accidents we get in aren't even that serious that u'd need a helmet.
