Can you get arrested for not wearing a helmet while skateboarding?

Answer 1

Yea you can even Skateboarding in general. A few of my friends went to metro on their skateboards and most of them were wearing helmets and only a few didn't and they all ended up getting arrested. I skateboard and I haven't got arrested yet but I'm still worried every time I go out with my skateboard because I feel the pressure of getting arrested. You can go no helmet if you want but you will always have the chance of getting arrested police just hate skateboarders. BTW I think you should wear a helmet so you don't crack your head open like my friend did he got 12 stitches, a concussion, and even almost died he spent 3 week is acoma and an extra 1 week in the ICU its up to you. I wear a helmet because I'm afraid it will happen to me. Have fun skateboarding and good luck not getting arrested. :)

Answer 2
