It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

EDIT: Don't bother reporting people criticizing others for not wearing a helmet. It's not victim blaming, just like criticizing someone for not wearing a seatbelt isn't victim blaming.

Wear your helmets people: Of course nobody deserves to get hit by a car but the reality is people are getting hit by cars.

with the exception of rear-seat passengers possibly injuring front-seat passengers

As I mentioned. Other than that I don't see what the danger is. You got to be insanely unlucky to be hit by an unsecured passenger that was thrown out of a vehicle.

Not an unsecured passenger that's thrown out of the car, an unsecured passenger being thrown into another passenger who is in the car.
