Austin had a brief, unpopular all-ages helmet law in 1996. It was amended to be kids-only after public blowback.
In 2006, former mayor Bruce Todd tried to bring the helmet law back, without success, possibly because cyclists packed City Hall to protest. I remember bemoaning how energized cyclists were for that effort, which I couldn't get anyone on board the same year to help advocate for car-free bike lanes on Shoal Creek Blvd.
Anyway, Bruce Todd just passed, at age 72.
