Helmets don't all interfere with hearing.

Yes, that is stupid. If they are going to allow deaf people to drive
(which, I believe they should, with some caveats), why not allow people to
use headphones while they drive?

Laws like this (no helmets, no headphones but allow people to drive) just
shows how stupidly beaurocratic the State can be.
