GREEKS GETTING HEAVY ON HELMETS

MAG Yorkshire rep Jane Chisholm tells us she has witnessed the Greek police in Athens getting heavy with bikers riding without helmets.

Penalties include possible bike confiscations on the spot.

Greece used to have a very liberal attitude to helmet wearing which gave the impression that choice prevailed.

There are suspicions that a European Commission decision to enforce helmet wearing
across the EU might be behind the Greeks less generous interpretation of their law.
