Letter to Editor: Don't forget helmet

Letters to Editor—News-Press 11/17/10
Don't forget helmet
Re: “Signs to protect bicyclists, walkers on Cape Coral roadway,” Nov. 3. As an instructor of first aid and emergency response programs, I was pleased to see Cape Coral’s warning signage cautioning drivers to “Look Both Ways For Bikes/Peds.” It was of interest to read that the pictured bike rider, Louie De Simone, rides his bike 20 miles a day, six days a week and was “almost hit by a driver using a cell phone.” May I suggest to Mr. De Simone to start wearing a helmet, which was apparently absent in the subject picture.
