Anung tingin n'yo rito at what are we going to do about this?

From Malaya Online Edition 25 June 2007
Metro LGUs to require motorcyclists’ plate number on their helmets

IN a bid to curb snatching, hold-ups and robbery cases perpetrated by motorcycle-riding men, the Metro Manila Council (MMC), the policy-making body of the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA), has passed a resolution requiring motorcycle owners and riders to paste their license plate numbers on both sides of their helmets.

The resolution was passed last Thursday during the 6th MMC council meeting attended by Mayors Feliciano Belmonte of Quezon City, Vicente Eusebio of Pasig, Sherwin Gatchalian of Valenzuela, Imelda Aguilar of Las Piñas, Vice Mayor Marion Andres of Marikina and representatives of other Metro Manila mayors and the PNP.

The resolution would require motorcycle riders to use a permanent, waterproof sticker to display their cycle plate numbers on the left and right sides of their helmets, big enough to be read from a distance of 25 meters.

It also requires the one riding tandem, or the so-called back rider, to keep his face shield tilted up to make it easy for the public to identify his face, should he turn out to be a criminal.

MMDA chairman Bayani Fernando called on local executives to make the violation of this resolution a criminal offense instead of just a traffic violation, and make life difficult for those who will not comply by including in the penalties the impounding of the motorcycle aside from fines.

Police Chief Supt. Rey Roderos said 106 cases of motorcycle-aided robbery and snatching cases were recorded in 2006, and 36 similar cases have been reported during the first quarter of 2007. - Ashzel Hachero

Oh man!  I also saw it on the news tonite! Arrrrrgh! Napaka bobo! Bobo! Bobo! Freakin knee jerk reaction! Non-thinking bureaucrats! Another band-aid solution! A font readable at 25 meters wouldn't fit a helmet! What if I show them what I use is a buco helmet.

Buti nalang probinsyano ako. Smiley   I wonder if this will be implemented in Makati. Binay is known to ignore MMDA directives.

few questions... at ilang hula.

  • anung font size ang kita pa rin 25 meters away? 
  • 25 meters? i guess big enough na matatakpan na halos ang helmet natin, left and right side  pa man din.
  • really now, mababawasan ba talaga ang kriminalidad if bikers put a sticker of their license plate number in their helmets? ok, given na ginagamit ng mga small-time thieves at hired killers ang motor. we all know why. pero about criminology, hindi rin ba sapat ang research rito ng mga social scientists na directly proportional ang crime rate sa poverty rate ng isang bansa?
  • sino ba ang may kasalanan kung bakit maraming reckless na bikers at motorists? hmmm... may kilala ba kayong bumagsak sa licensure exams ng LTO? hmmm... bakit kaya walang bumabagsak?
  • again, ano ba ang sasakyan ng mga totoong kriminal (druglords, plunderers at kung anong masahol pa)? motorsiklo ba? hindi po.

hay... rabe naman yang ginawang batas na yan. ni hindi ginamit ang mga utak sa pagpropopose nito. ang tindi. parang hindi man lang pinagaralan bago ipasa tong batas na ito. very low on the end of the mmda chairman. nakakahiya naman yung ginawa niya. i wonder kung sino ang naginfluence sa kanya ipropose tong batas na ito.

AND ONE MORE THING... papalagay pa nila yung plate number sa both sides ng helmet eh ang DAMI ngang hindi naka helmet sa kalsada eh.
