Rempitism

I guest, you guys heard this word for the first time, right? This word only can be found in Malaysia. It refers to bikers who had really bad attitude on normal public roads, such as, speeding like hell, like to disturb other road users, doing illegal stunts and so on.

However, at one time, this thing becomes worse as it involves drugs, snatching handbags, gangsterism and even murders. Usually, these bikers ride on small capacity bike such as Honda Cubs and came in packs. Our police are trying their best to crack down these people for them to face justice.

A lot of roadblocks have been put to trace them down. Even the government has to involve in this situation to educate other bikers not to become rempits. Thank God that, their numbers are decreasing from time to time.

I really pity to other bikers, including me, since, because of them, we become the victims of this situation. Normal daily commuters who are using bikes have to be stopped and interrogated by the police at each roadblocks they faced everyday and these will effect their traveling time. Sadly, these normal commuters have been targeted by other motorists of becoming threats to them. I didn’t blame the police because of it, but I blamed these people because they make our life miserable.

I bet that, this thing also happen anywhere, right? How do you guys react to this kind of problem? What should we do to solve this problem since it involves our young generations?
