A member of the Australian police force in a Melbourne requires help Veerji as discussed over phone , I am hereby sending you the attached email that I received for a Singh from Australia regarding the exemption in Crash Helmet, please read the mail please guide us for the further steps.... Regards ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Gaganinder <removed mail address> Date: Wed, Jan 8, 2014 at 1:33 PM Subject: Help and advice ( exemption from wearing a crash helmet in Australia) To: "sewaforsewa@gmail.com" <sewaforsewa@gmail.com> Sat Sri Akal Paaji, I had a conference today at Equal opportunity commission which involved Equal Opportunity representative,Vic roads representative lawyer and also their policy officer who specifically deals with motor bike issues . They seemed to be understanding of the importance of wearing a Turban for a sikh person but at the same time they indicated that there hands are tied as they are guided by road safety rules act 2010 which doesn't allow them to make any changes to the law . In simple words they say the have to follow the law and that it is not in their hands to give me any exception . They have advised me to take this matter to the court and to the local. Member of Parliament. They indicated that politically this could bring changes by lobbying on the grounds we believe in. Now is the time I need some assistance in regards to what Sikhs have done earlier getting these changes through the parliament. If you can provide me details and references of Sikhs in England, Canada, or USA the it will be beneficial for me. I can be easily contacted on (removed phone number). Regards Gaganinder Singh
