A cursory look at roads in most of our cities, towns and communities clearly indicates the ever increasing presence of tricycles popularly referred to as “pragia”, playing key roles in facilitating the transportation of people from one point to the other.
The Road Traffic Regulations 2012 (Legislative Instrument [L.I] 2180), however, prohibits the use of motorcycles and three wheelers for commercial activities.
Although the law exists, there has been a blatant disregard for this regulation for many years mainly due to challenges in enforcement.
From road safety perspective, we need to be smarter about our transport systems and stay ahead of the curve.
