Risky one-wheeling on roads should stop
July 31, 2022 00:00:00
I have witnessed one-wheeling stunts multiple times on less-congested roads like Dhaka-Mawa Expressway. This stunt has a cost and many youngsters lose their lives every day due to accidents. These one-wheelers are not only risking their own lives, but threatening other people on the roads too. Many times we come across news about bikers hitting pedestrians while one-wheeling on their bikes.
As this trend is rampant, the government should order the traffic police to keep a strict watch on the one-wheelers, especially at night. Many one-wheelers have competitions at night resulting in many casualties. I urge the relevant authorities to take action to put a stop to one-wheeling. And for the bike riders, there should be designated tracks where it is possible.
