DIFFUN, Quirino, March 23 (PIA) -- To prevent crimes involving men riding in tandem on motorcycles in this municipality, the municipal council proposed the “no helmet zone” within the poblacion barangays here. | |||
“The suspects used helmets to conceal their identity to the victims or to the witnesses of the crimes they committed,” Sangguniang Bayan Jovino Navalta, chairman of public order and safety committee, said. | |||
In the proposed ordinance, the “no helmet zone” will cover the area from Disinaba Bridge at Barangay Aurora West up to the street going to the Department of Environment and Natural Resources at Barangay Andres Bonifacio, from the irrigation canal at Barangay Isidro Paredes, from the siphon at Barangay Rizal and from the Diffun Water District Pump House at Nursery, Rizal, Diffun. | |||
Navalta said this is to easily identify the motorcycle riders who are planning to perpetrate crimes such as theft, robbery, holdup in the municipality. | |||
Based on police records, there were three robbery incidents involving motorcycle riding in tandem in March to April 2011. | |||
Navalta also allayed riders’ fears of possible accidents due to non-wearing of helmets while traversing the “no helmet zone” saying that accidents could be avoided if riders follow the prescribed speed limit under RA 4136, Chapter IV or the traffic rules. | |||
“On city and municipal streets, the speed limit should be 30 km per hour and in crowded streets, approaching intersections at blind corners, passing school zones, passing other vehicles which are stationery, or for similar dangerous circumstances, 20 km per hour,” Navalta explained. | |||
The Land Transportation Office Provincial head Ernesto Fernandez said the proposed ordinance is good and they will support as a means to stop the crimes involving motorcycle riders. | |||
