With reference to the report titled, 'Motorcycle race in Verna claims life , injures one," in The Goan Everyday dated December 10, it would be best to prevent reckless bike riding with fenced off bike lanes having sonorous tiles which make a buzzing sound when a lane is broken and speed cameras and CCTV cameras and the mandatory use of luminous crash helmets for the rider and pillion rider and affordable air bag suits. The authorities should promote the use of the safer and more stable and more affordable three-wheeled bike by mass producing it and make written and practical tests mandatory for bike riders when they renew their bike licenses. In this way, one can and must prevent reckless bike riding -- properly and quickly.
