    It is good to see the authorities cracking down on noisy motorcycles. There needs to be much more of this.

    okiebound has been a valuable contributor of QUALITY information for very many years. She has helped many members directly and indirectly. Rather than feel sorry for her we respect her important contribution to many topics here and the post by Notmyrealname has politely given you a very good suggestion. I believe you have not correctly understood her first post in this string and indeed you are both of the same belief on the topic, but I am sure many members, like me, will be concerned with your apparent aggression with words like "drama queen".

    This is not a good use of words my friend and maybe this is due to your non-English as your main language. The lady also was referring to her late husband and therefore it comes across as very insensitive - but I am sure you were not aware of that and it was not intentional. I am informing you of this politely as I feel you might wish to edit or remove that post (is that possible?)

    Before they crack down those they should go for the ones driving without light. (front and back). But this is of course wishful thinking. Maybe all expats in Dumaguete should create a fund: FREE BULBS FOR MOTORCYCLES. We buy 20 000 pieces at a discounted price of 15 Peso each at Alibaba. Problem solved. Or maybe not[emoji12][emoji2962][emoji1782]

    Kind thought but logistical nightmare - the same drivers, or family members, will queue for anything free and then sell it on.

    Fining drivers without lights a significant amount will do the trick - but the energy to enforce seems to be lacking.
