You could apply that top so many things. Ask any doctor or nurse about how much of A&E time is taken with having to deal with drunks, up to 75% at weekends. Would you ban alcohol to help the NHS. Or how about mountaineers, rock climbers, rugby players, motor racing participants and all those who take part in dangerous leisure activities. Maybe they should all be stopped too.
As regards helmets, a far greater number of people receive head injuries in car accidents that ever do on two wheels, yet would I be right in saying that you would oppose compulsory helmet wearing when travelling by car?
Hmmm?
