effects towards public..what are they??????


Halluuu….i’m back,

hehe.. It has been a long time since I last published a post here. Well I couldn’t help it. Wow..looks like the topic on illegal street racing had become more interesting. Seems like my friends in their post above had talked about the effects of illegal street racing towards public and some of them also talked about a disastrous consequence to the family of the perpetrator It is an interesting topic to talk about and I think I’m going to go on with this topic but I won’t touch about effects to their family.. Well..as I’ve talked about in my previous posts, illegal street racing is an act that go against the law of this country and it is without a doubt that each illegal act will have a very negative impact not only to those who were committing the act but also the people around them that is the public. well, what could the impacts to the public? hm..one of the impact is that it will not only endanger those who were involved in this act but also other road users. Why do I say that? It is because these people especially the motorcyclist or also widely known as ‘mat rempit’. These Mat Rempit as quoted by shaffi earlier are infamous for their "Superman" stunts, a stunt where they like flying on their motorcycles and this of course will endanger not only them but also others. You guys maybe curious why did I say that this action will endanger other road users. This of course could happen as when they were doing this action their control over their vehicle will be lesser with their feet is nowhere near the main brake, and if the suddenly lose control, the probability of crashing with other vehicle is very high. other dangerous action that they performed on their motorcycles also include the kind where they weave in-between moving and stationary traffic at high-speed during racing. This action according to shaffi earlier is also known as "Cilok". This is dangerous as they could collide with other vehicle as they were weaving. Other than endangered road users, another effect that can be add on here is that they also cause a public disorder. This always happen when they were racing at midnight near a housing area especially the ‘mat rempit’ where the sound that came from their motorcycle is very noisy due to a modifications made by them. Well..i think that’s all I’m going to talk for now..till we meet again….bye
