Ever since the High Court verdict regarding helmet use came into effect two- wheeler riders in Kerala are in a run. The government with the assistance of police and RT officials have squeezed heavily from them. Bikers have become a source of ready money for the police and the government.
Now going one step further they are denied petrol from pumps if not wearing helmets. The directive in this regard has been issued by Transport Commissioner Tomin Thachankary even without consulting the minister because the minister's comment is not in tune with that of commissioner.
The riders have still a choice. Let them carry a can with them. Petrol will be given in can to all persons whether they are bike riders or not. To avoid confrontation bikers should keep their vehicle beyond the line of sight of pump operators.
