bicycle helmets review image

I had a seizure last week and in the ER they told me I wasn't allowed to drive for the next 6th months, I live on my own and there is no good public transportation near my house, so I'm assuming you can see how this would be a major problem. Does anyone know if mopeds fall under this law?
Answer
The DMV medical review board requires you to be seizure free for 6 months until your license can be reinstated.
You need a license to operate a motor vehicle.
A scooter is considered a motor vehicle.
Switch to a bicycle for transportation - and wear a bicycle helmet.
Riding a bicycle is good exercise, they get great gas mileage and can almost travel the same speed as a 50cc scooter.

Answer
Canada has some provincial and local helmet laws. Ontario's helmet law for cyclists under 18 took effect in 1995. It was originally to have covered all ages, and there is a bill in parliament now to extend it to do that. There is spirited opposition by a few cyclists there. (see links below) Proponents cite the cost of cyclists' injuries to the national health system, without reference to the much greater cost of treating those injured in cars, a blind spot also found in the US. In March, 2003, the Canadian Institute for Health Information announced that hospitalizations due to cycling-related injuries were down 12.5 per cent between 1997-98 and 2001-02.
The Canadian province of Nova Scotia enacted all-age bicycle helmet legislation in 1997. Toronto University Professor of Epidemiology Dr Mary Chipman published a research paper (PDF 44k) in March 2002 through the Canadian Medical Association Journal: "The data from Australia and now Nova Scotia suggest that legislation increases helmet use but also reduces the numbers of cyclists."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Further research published in the Canadian Medical Association Journal suggests a 62% reduction in cyclist numbers in Halifax the year after helmet law enactment, with more cyclist injuries recorded than before the law and a nominal reduction in head injuries (8 less head injuries in 1999).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The failure of the helmet law in the Canadian provinces of British Columbia and Ontario were also exposed in July 2003 by researcher Dorothy Robinson in a paper peer reviewed by pediatrics.com.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Despite these failures, Ontario is in 2004 considering legislation for the mandatory wearing of helmets by cyclists of all ages. Read the viewpoint of the Hammer or the opinion of Connie Woodcock from the Toronto
