Title: Helmet Use...
Post by: Bill_Oddie on 16 December 2010, 19:31:52

Ive done a couple of track days with my Omega. Bit tricky to be honest trying to keep up with the hot hatches through the twisties.

I use an open faced helmet when doing them.

I had a thought. Does anyone know if its legal to wear a helmet in a car on the open roads for general driving?

If you can wear a burkha, then you can wear a helmet.
I have seen women round here peering out of a slit whilst driving an overloaded Datsun or similar :y
