Tukaram (Tim) Posted August 14, 2014 Posted August 14, 2014 That is about right. Punish everyone for the mistakes of a few. Instead of getting the police to do their job it is easier to pass an almost unenforceable law... The Philippines is more like the US than I thought ha ha :tiphat: 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jon1 Posted August 15, 2014 Posted August 15, 2014 I think it's pretty funny, especially the comments on the link. There is a town up in the north (I forget the name) that made it illegal to wear full face helmets in their quest to address this problem. How can they make something illegally locally that is a requirement on the federal level? Only in the Philippines..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malcolm Graham Posted September 4, 2014 Posted September 4, 2014 http://www.abs-cbnnews.com/nation/metro-manila/09/04/14/motorcycle-ordinance-mandaluyong-begins MANILA - Mandaluyong City Mayor Benhur Abalos inspected several checkpoints in the city on Thursday morning for the first day of implementation of a controversial policy on motorcycle riding. Mandaluyong City Ordinance 550 prohibits two males who are not first-degree relatives from riding a motorcycle in the city. Two men on board a motorcycle will be required to present documents or IDs proving that they are related to each other. Female or children passengers are exempted from the ordinance. Most of those apprehended said they were not aware of the new ordinance. They also complained of the delays caused by the apprehension. A fine of P1,000 will be imposed for the first offense, P2,000 for second offense, and P3,000 for third offense. The city is still pilot testing the ordinance to see if it will be successful in reducing crimes involving motorcycle riders. Several groups have slammed the city ordinance, saying it violates basic rights. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcolm Graham Posted September 4, 2014 Posted September 4, 2014 Metro Manila has passed the same law but not started it yet. Pasay City ban the wearing of full face helmets within the city except for EDSA and Roxas Blvd. Quezon city are bringing in a law were a high visibilty jacket with the number of the bike is worn by all riders. I posted a news article the Mandaluyong City law started today with lots of checkpoints. As its P1000 fine thats one law the enforcers will be hot on enforcing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
