Chief Graham seems to think that this is an important thing to 
enforce. Every bike month, to encourage less people to cycle, 
they launch a helmet enforcement campaign. I would rather they 
enforce other more serious violations, such as motorists running 
red lights, cyclists riding at night without lights etc.
