DerekChange in the TX Helmet Law?
Has anyone heard of S.B. No 1368? Supposed to go into law June 1, 2008.
It makes several changes in the helmet law, but I did not hear about it during the legislative update.

HB 727 informationIn other words, neither of these bills ever got close to passing. Chalk it up to another spurious internet rumor. (Don't worry, there will be more as we approach Sept. 1!)
