What about wearing helmets in Muslim Enclaves? Police are very brave to implement Traffic Laws to Sinhala folks. This should be stopped.
Amarakoon,
Do you mean to say Muslims should ride motorbikes withou helmets?
Please examine you comments; it is highly racis*.
Mr. F. Fernando, Let me put it this way. Muslims should wear Helmets. Police should strictly enforce this traffic Law. We all know in places like Kathankudi Muslims ride Motorcycles without helmets.
Helmets are for ones own safety to save ones head and brain from injury, if the muslims in Kathankudy do not wear helmets it shows they do not have heads or put it in another way their they must be having empty sculls and brains are not in the top part of their bodies but in situated in the lower part
