WHAT IS this we’ve heard that one police officer (we don’t know who) is proposing that motorcycles be banned from the streets? He also made a proposal (we don’t know to who) that back-riders be unallowable.

He made these “proposals” in light of the rising incidence of riders-in-tandem wreaking havocs on the streets. But aren’t these “proposals” quite unfair for innocent motorcycle-riding men (and back-riders)?

Granted that there is a rise in incidents involving riding-in-tandem criminals, it does not mean that ALL riders-in-tandem are criminals.
