PORT ORANGE – The Port Orange-based law firm of Rue & Ziffra recently donated 100 bicycle helmets to the Port Orange Police Department for the agency’s free helmet program.
The helmets – which are available on a first-come, first-serve basis – are free to children under the age of 16. Florida law states that children under age 16 must wear an approved helmet when riding a bicycle.
