Skateboarding comes with great risk. So, it's always best to wear protective equipment like a helmet, knee and elbow pads.
Unfortunately for this guy, unless he was wearing a football helmet with full face protection, he was going to get injured regardless.
I'm going to go ahead and assume that anyone who has a driver's license has also received a speeding ticket at some point in their lifetime. If you haven't, I applaud you. We all speed, though. It's a part of the driving experience. Now, the next time you're doing 60 in a 30mph zone...Imagine doing it on a skateboard.
