Official position of MRO on the MC lanes: ONE VOICE - ONE STAND!

1. We are in favor of the MC Lane only if the infrastructure supports it and the conditions are ideal (Currently, IT IS NOT!)
2. We ask that they focus first on the current issues like the lack of control over PUV's who stop, block, weave and race though the roads without being apprehended
3. To stop the indiscriminate issuance of R1 licenses to unqualified riders
4. To strictly enforce the existing laws and not add new ones that are half baked to say the least
5. To remove all unscrupulous enforcement personnel who cannot do their jobs properly
6. To remove unequal treatment by enforcement on mc riders while other vehicles are being ignored
7. To allow us to be part of any plan or legislative projects for motorcycles
8. To bring back fair and honest treatment of all road users
9. To stop branding all riders as bad, irresponsible and criminals
10. To stop making MC riders money machines on the road

Please take note of number 1: We like the idea... What we don't like is the way it is implemented and the way they designed it without TRULY considering our position and safety. They say it's for our own good, but in reality, they are dictating rules that violate other provisions of the law... They say it's because of the bad apples on the road, but in reality, every class of vehicle has bad apples and just because there are bad riders and drivers does not give them the right to treat everybody else the same... That is undue profiling and that is discrimination...

The ends does not justify the means... One Voice, One Stand!!!
