I don't have access to the study in question, but according to some who
have seen the study, it was not done on production passenger vehicles with
airbags and did not test full-face vs. open face helmets. To me it seems
extremely unwise to base a major safety rule change on a _single_ study
that did not even include the types of vehicles we are concerned with.
