Are you wearing a tiny slipper for riding your motorbike!

Now coming to our today’s issue, what we wear on our foot while ride a motorbike? Very unfortunately and ridiculously even in Dhaka city many biker uses very tiny slipper or sandals. This is really out of manner and against safety standard. Even in highways we saw many people riding bike wearing these kinds of tiny slippers. Isn’t it funny or ridiculous?

Guy’s sandals are not safe for riding a bike. Wearing a sandal with helmet & gloves is something like wearing a shirt over an underwear. So I hope you got the funny thing of our habit! So please change your habit and come to the standard. Let’s work together to follow the standard and ensure the safety for our own and other. We believe we can do it, so lets do it from now. Wear a helmet and a pair of boots then ride your motorcycle. Thank you all.
