Helmet Law Defense League

Helmet Law Defense League

The Helmet Law Defense League (HLDL) is a group founded in 1993 that opposes the laws in some states mandating motorcycle helmets. Founded in early 1993, the group claims that these laws are unconstitutional, arguing that states do not have the right to impose safety regulations on individuals as part of their police powers, and that the term "helmet" is too vague to be legally enforceable.
