Why Bother just exclude injuries from such idiocy from ACC cover.
It is merely another example of the Laws of Darwin in operation, hopefully before they have bred?

If advice education and social training have not reached the morons who might wish to run straight into another risking life limb and any future, there is precious little to be gained from making such stupidity against any legal impost.

Equally as stupid and insane as Catherine Wedd’s notional similar treatment of internet access for an arbitrary age.

Years ago equally stupid laws attempted to prevent access to licenced premises for alcohol for under the age of “Majority”, how did that work out? remind me please. For those of us back then not yet interested in imbibing it just highlighted what must be a challenge. I recall the nearer I got to the arbitrary age of 21, possible court and penalties did somehow register but was that from any respect for an entirely idiotic attitude of authority or development of my frontal lobe?

My attitude, legislate by all means but not to attempt the many times failed Prohibition law impost, just make public money unavailable as an option to treat the downstream repercussions, beyond practical first aid medical treatments.
