Re: New Road Rules... Passenger Helmets
You have to remember that in the course of evolution Khmer skulls have developed to be much harder that genetically inferior western dudes. Therefore when they fall off their motos their heads do not break and they simply bounce back up and continue their journey.

Und der Haifisch der hat Tränen
Und die laufen vom Gesicht
Doch der Haifisch lebt im Wasser
So die Tränen sieht man nicht
In der Tiefe ist es einsam
Und so manche Träne fliesst
Und so kommt es dass das Wasser
In den Meeren salzig ist
Und die laufen vom Gesicht
Doch der Haifisch lebt im Wasser
So die Tränen sieht man nicht
In der Tiefe ist es einsam
Und so manche Träne fliesst
Und so kommt es dass das Wasser
In den Meeren salzig ist

Police should be selling helmet, every times you are caught without one, they sell you one, making some profit of course.
Now the local has a helmet they can wear, and the money is not a bribe.

Haha. my Cambodian mate loves this. he said where he lives its more dangerous to drive with your lights on cos the motorbike thieves can see you and stop you to nick the bike he also laughs at helmets. "f I don't wear a helmet I die quickly. if I wear a helmet and live my family will be bankrupted by medical bills. better to die quick"
Helmets are probably not that effective above walkingpace anyway. Most will not past even the lowest bicycle helmet test at home, They don't fit because they have one helmet for everyone in the family and the straps are shit so they fall off in a spill anyway, if they got them done up. They are useful for jamming your phone in as a Khmer hands free kit though.

However if they sell them a helmet they are taking potential repeat customers (bribes) away.
Re: New Road Rules... Passenger Helmets
The police were selling helmets as an alternative to the fine when the law came in in some places but they wanted $5 or $10 for a helmet that is $2 to $5 in the market. the new traffic law has also started a new crime, stealing helmets! BTW the police are now enforcing passenger helmets on sihanouk, monivong and norodom, much to the surprise of the locals. Even saw a policeman slap a kid on the head as he dodged rounds the copperkiwiincambodia wrote: ↑Fri Dec 29, 2017 9:35 pmDon’t give them any ideas.....mrfusion wrote:Police should be selling helmet, every times you are caught without one, they sell you one, making some profit of course.
