Many biking advocates are not in favor of the potential move.
Sonia Rincon reports as New Jersey considers a bill that would require adults to wear a helmet when riding a bike.Lawmakers in New Jersey are considering a new bill that would make the state the first in the country to require all adults to wear a helmet while riding a bicycle or scooter.The state already requires all children to wear a helmet."I'm half and half with it. I think it's a good idea. We all know we should be wearing a helmet.
"I would say that it should probably mimic the same thing as not having on a seat belt," Atkins said."It's the same principle. It's having a device that's put in place to keep someone safe."Casual cyclists like Colin Cecere say they'd rather choose when and where to wear a helmet and if it's going to be required for adults maybe only for certain circumstances.
Bike advocate organizations, like the New Jersey Bike and Walk Coalition, say a law isn't necessary and is likely to discourage people from choosing to ride a bike over taking their car.
