Zeno's New Paradox
1. People are fallible.
2. Some people enjoy motorcycling without a helmet.
3. Sometimes automobile drivers make mistakes.
4. Sometimes motorcyclists die or are severely injured in accidents that would be minor fender benders if the motorcyclist had been in an automobile instead of on a motorbike.
5. The best way to address this problem would be the death penalty for harming a motorcyclist.
