Posted in: What do you think of attempts by police to get people to stop using cell phones and listening to music while riding bicycles? See in context

Well, when you live in a country where for the most part common sense does not prevail and where people have the attitude that, "if nothing happens then it's OK" you are facing an uphill battle. I have seen people nearly get killed, have come within an inch of losing their lives and they don't even flinch. I have seen people on bicycles as well as other means of transportation doing things that would get you locked up in other countries. Of course there are some sensible people but they are in the minority. There are stupid people in every country but I think only a radical conceptual change of thought about what it actually means to be riding a bicycle in public and what is common sense will bring about a change in this country. Personally I don't see it happening...but hope springs eternal.
