Allow the police to chase stolen motorbikes if the rider has a helmet or not.
There is a massive problem of motorbikes being stolen and used to terrorise innocent members of the public. Our roads and parks have become like racetracks and the police are not allowed to give chase in case the rider hurts themselves a ridiculous policy that does nothing but protect the criminal.

If you would like police forces to be required by law to pursue suspects whether or not they are wearing a helmet, you could start a petition asking for that.
