new rule for motorcycle riders in jakarta
This monday (Dec 4th, 2006), there is new rule for motorcycle riders in Jakarta.
They have to turn on the light in the morning until night if they walk in the road. And they have to walk in the left side.
It's new rule and crazy rule :P
Why they have to turn on the light in the morning until evening ? What for?
If they have to turn on the light in the night or when in the heavy rain, it's normal.
Btw, in the night, sometime the riders didn't turn on the light, and it causes an accident. And why the police didnt care about it?
Hmm so strange !
Or ... it just my opinion.. this new rules, it can raise selling product for lamp :p
Normally, the motorcycle riders ride his motorcycle in the left side, but... almost of bus and the other car (angkot) they always take this way, so the motorcycle avoid to take the left side.
Why? It because that car or bus always suddenly from the center of way, directly go to the left side to take the passenger or to drop the passenger.
It's very danger if the motorcyle or car walk in the left side (sometimes).. and it maybe will causes an accident.
So strange rule......

there's no official rule for this up to now (it's just an instruction or probably a suggestion), so if you are fined by the police, ask him/her to show the rule/law which state this.

Well... In Belgium, motorcycles have to have their lights on always. It is because in Belgium, roads are more empty than here and a motorcycle is more visible that way (especially for pedestrians that want to cross the street). In the Netherlands, this rule applies also and even more, the car drivers there are advised to light their headlights during the day also. In some of the northern European countries, even cars have to have their lights on every hour of the day.
