So, the solution for putting order to the nasty motorcycle riders, did you ask?
I believe in embedding the needs of rules for creating order first. This may be accomplished by a campaign of relentless “mind washing” as well as adequate reward and punishment program. A program that runs non-stop for two year would suffice.
Say the city administrator is to put mega number of volunteers, already trained to understand every single correct rule of traffic into the streets. These volunteer would be given the authority matching that of the traffic police, meaning they could stop, ask for proper documents, and give tickets (tilang). These volunteers are brainwashed not to accept bribery in whatever form, big or small. A violation of the rule is a violation of the rule. Not more, not less. But there will be degree of violation: minor, medium, major, and fatal. Of course, punishment for different degree of violation would be different, too.
Every SIM (drivers’ license) would be barcoded, and there will be integrated national data on every holder of a driver license. So whenever a driver goes, his data follows him. Either he violates a rule in Semarang or in Sibolga, these violations would show in his record.
Each driver is allocated maximum number of violation. If he is overquota, the driver license would be suspended and he will be prohibited to drive for a certain period of time.
Triple suspension would result in permanent termination of license. So he will be condemned to use the public transportation for the rest of his life. Re-applying for a license is possible but on very strict conditions.
So, if put in short, the basic things needed are:
Integrated and fully computerized data with adequate resources nation-wide
Strict compliance to the rules
Strong reinforcement
Those three will need MAJOR investment. That’s for the officials up there to find out.
Keep on dreaming, Lass.
