What's next? Crash tests for bicycles going 31 mph and hitting a steel wall? How about a motorcycle getting hit from the side by a car going 40 mph?

Is it really necessary to do a crash test to know that if you run your golf cart into a steel wall at 31 mph or get hit in the side by a car the results will not be good. People take risks all the time. We ride bicycles, motorcycles and walk on the side of the road. Stuff happens. You either live your life and accept the risks or you sit in your house and cower. If you choose the latter, you should be aware that an airplane could crash into your house or a trailer truck could some crashing through into your bedroom.

It's up to each of us to decide what risks we are willing to take. Every day, every situation has some risk to it.
