Michigan State Senate Bill 0291 (2011) (State Senate of Michigan) Enter bill number 291.

The senate introduced bill amends to require adults over 21 the right to choose to wear a hemlet immediately.

The as passed by senate says they'll do that, but to take effect 4 years later and in that 4 years a study must be made to investigate the use of helmets using funds from the safety budget. Additionally, they require the rider to be insured.

The as passed by house says the same as proposed, but requires insurance with lesser coverage rates than that of the senate proposal.
