Here we go again.
Just because the government is unable to combat armed gangs and robbers (motochorros) who use motorbikes to kill and rob, law abiding bikers will have to be marked out by the obligatory use of a reflective vest with the bike registration printed on it as well as on the helmet.
This has already been tried unsuccessfully when Scioli was governor of BA Province and in fact the crime rate involving criminals on bikes has increased with no let up.
The criminals are also stealing law abiding bikers' wheels and grabbing their helmets and vests to carry out their nefarious deeds.
Further, they are imposing a ban on two people riding on one bike at certain hours.
I often wear a reflective vest over my jacket, but that's a personal choice for safety reasons and not because I feel obliged to and certainly not for showing the world my bike registration number. That's why we have number plates ffs.
Now we're are all going to be marked out as criminals, whilst the police turn a blind eye to those that ride bikes without helmets, insurance or driving licenses. In fact, out of every one person who rides a bike in this country, there are at least ten who either don´t wear a helmet or carry it under their arm just to fill up with petrol. And let´s not even talk about the families of five, including babies and pets who roam the city on scooters with no protection or insurance at all.
The police simply couldn´t give a f*ck and are more interested in fining bikers who look as if they can afford to pay a fine., so when the next massive bike rally is announced, I'll be there.
Desperate measures from a desperate government.
Oh and let's not forget this:
