The Liberal Party's political spokesman and former Minister of Transport Thomas Danielsen rejects the desire to make it mandatory to wear a bicycle helmet. He tells TV 2. He says that the party is in line with the Danish Cyclists' Association, which warns that a legal requirement, according to their studies, will lead to fewer people using a bicycle helmet.
