and maybe they dont know.... WE ARE A THIRD WORLD COUNTRY. laws that are meant to be implemented should be practical and not an OVERKILL.

and one more thing.... why is there discrimination among riders rather than on cagers?

i am both a cager and a rider.... libog....

I'm in between meetings right now so I wont go in to too much details, I'll leave that to our chairman Jobert Bolanos.

But what is clear from this morning's meeting is this:

1. Helmet standards of AO Suspended. Suansing also agreed verbally to a moratorium on helmet standards until 2013!!! Which means that if you buy your helmet now, you'll need to change it after five years anyway so this gives you time to follow safety standards to be dictated by the DTI and implemented by the LTO.

Acceptable helmets have these qualities:
a. is a motorcycle helmet - construction, bicycle, military helmets are not allowed
b. Has a hard plastic outer cover
c. Has a styro inner padding
d. Has inner lining
e, has a secure strap

2. Number of passengers - Suspended until further study of city and municipal roads traffic volume.

3. Modification - SUSPENDED until further study is made on what is deemed unsafe. Offhand, Asec. Suansing mentioned that Chasis alteration and low ground clearance are the things he finds dangerous modifications.

4. Saddle bags and Carrying Aparatus - Suspended.

Guys, it was a different LTO we faced today...they listened, took down notes and Asec. Suansing actually was very upfront with his agreement that some of the interpretation of the original AO was too harsh.

MOre of the info from Jobert...

Personally I feel that this change is due to the following movements of which I am very impressed and greatful.

1. The Dumaguete movement - Fellow Rider Cong. Teves and his team did very well today! Thank you to you and our brothers from Dumaguete!

2. The MRO Info Drive!

3. The countless others who have made their stand verbally and physically!

Congratulations to all of us!

Now let's work with government with the LTO and together make this country biker friendly and biker safe!
