Rider Puts Important Message On His Own Protective Shield
FOR PROTECTION? – A rider expressed his dismay over the protective shield mandated by the IATF and puts an important message on his own.
Since the implementation of the protective shield rule, thousands have questioned why it was approved in the first place. The most obvious reason people question the rule is that the only people allowed to back ride are married couples, or those living together.
This makes the protective shield useless as the main reason for its implementation is to protect against COVID-19. However, being a couple still meant the rider and the passenger would come home together and sleep in the same bed.
Another issue was the actual aerodynamics and the compromise to the motorcycle’s stability. As such, a group of engineers wrote a letter detailing the reasons why the design could be dangerous and how it defeats its very purpose.
With all this in mid, a brave rider who put up his own protective shield placed an important message to those who came up with the idea in the first place: “BOBO NAKA-ISIP NETO!”.

Here are some of the comments from netizens of Reddit:
And the fact that they didn’t listen to the pleas of the people to remove this stupid barrier when engineers have already explained and proven why it will be dangerous to have this just goes to show na ang bobo ng gobyerno natin at matitigas ulo nila. Ayaw makinig. Ang kukulit. Ang hilig magmarunong at magmagaling.
Supposedly to avoid virus transmission from driver to passenger.
Problem is it is very dangerous. You’re basically driving a motorcycle with a huge drag surface directly against its direction of movement.
It is also pointless since motorcycles are open-air and the virus is easily blown away by the wind. In fact, these things add more contact surface for the virus to stick on instead.
It is pretty the obvious that the actual purpose of this death trap is so some people in government can look like they’re doing something while at the same time fleecing motorcycle riders’ money by selling these things and by imposing penalties.
