I agree with the Police. The government has given in to the agitators. 150 c.c. is indeed a powerful machine. Here in the U.K one can ride a motor cycle with a provisional licence and 'L' plates only if the capcity is below 50 c.c. Anything above requires a full motorcycle licence. Wearing helmets is compulsory here. cheers Gabe Menezes TIME TO TAKE OFF HELMET: Motorcyclists riding vehicles with an engine capacity of 150 cc or less and maintaining the 40 kmph speed limit need not wear helmets. A notification to this effect was issued on March 14 by Director of Transport DA Hawaldar in a bid to put an end to the issue that threatened to snowball into a major controversy. While the Motorcycle Action Group praised the notification saying that it would encourage people to drive slowly and carefully, one police officer ridiculed the amendment saying that the blood of all those who had died and will die is in the hands of the government.
