Like a crash helmet is must for all 2 wheelresso life jacket must be must for all entering water.. A 2.5 litre empyt cola bottle held near the chin is enough to prevent drowning so a cheep affordable light weight jackets must be made available and compulsary for all those entering or playing even in knee deep waters.. In army even while sitting in a moterboat life belts ae compulsary, so it must be for all civilians.. Other things are also important ..
