[ARCHIVED] Police on the Lookout for Kids Wearing Bike Helmets

DQ Cone

While on patrol this summer, Mendota Heights Police will be on the lookout for kids wearing helmets. If caught, a child may find themselves making a trip to a local DQ® restaurant.

As part of AAA’s “I Got Caught” campaign, as many as 100,000 Minnesota youth will be written a ‘citation’ for a free small DQ® cone for wearing a helmet while biking, scootering, skateboarding or in-line skating.
