action taken to combat....effective????

Ola….its me again,

mohamad khairy izwan bin mohamad zamani (A123138)

well, since not much for me to do this weekend, so I decided to write on this blog. Well previously I’ve talked about the effects of the illegal street racing towards the public that we all know is a very hazardous. Hm..for now I’m going to write on what the authorities had done to oppose this illegal act. I bet everyone knows that lot of measures had been taken by the authorities to counter the problem. One of the actions taken is by setting up a road block and also patrolling at the roads that was identified as a venue for the race. Not only that, the government also took a drastic measure by legislating a law that allow the authorities especially police to detain and charge not only the those who were involved in the racing but also those who watch the race at the side of the street. Furthermore the government had also legislate an existing law regarding safety on road by penalize those who were arrested on charge of committing an illegal racing with heavier punishment. Well, so far, we had seen that the government had taken lot of action to deal with this problem but the question is that does these actions effective? Well, frankly speaking I don’t think that the measures taken by the authorities are effective and why did I say that? Well, the answer lies in front of our own eyes. The problem is still there. No matter how many road-blocks and patrols take place we still can see a racing take place. These illegal racers seem do not care even though they realize that they will face a heavy punishment if they got caught. Why does this happen even though lot of actions taken by the authorities? There’s only one answer to this question and that is these measures taken by the authorities to combat this problem are not effective and a new and more effective solution need to be think of. Well..i’ve been writing a lot here and it seems I need to go now. Till we meet again guys…chow sin chee….
