    That sure is a foolish over-reach...
    But I DO see a way out of it: their is a religious exemption...

    ‘overzealous law enforcement officers.’

    "bikers, said they have been pulled over and ticketed under the mask-wearing law because, they said, they were wearing helmets that concealed their faces.”




    Likely miss-use of the law by law enforcement - to make a point.


    The freedom that comes with having "the power of the pen" is often miss-used.




    Identify what you have control over and find peace with what you don't.

    My thinking is that the reason is to call attention to a stupid law in order to get it changed.

    Default Interesting. ...

    suppose this would only apply to the full face with tinted shield...The law is alright but it should not apply to safety. That would mean they could go after welders, divers, construction workers etc....

    Well------ I like the bike in the link. I have a metallic black '98 with emerald green accents next to the Spyder.

    Not having a fast bike in the garage causes me ::::::::::::::: Kaos

    The LEO may have mis-applied the law but this article states that one of the reasons for it is to combat groups like the KKK.
