This youngster is spotted along Jalan Gombak recently, exuding a sense of infantile confidence, perched in front of her dad's bike. She was standing on her tiny feet, gripping instinctively onto the bike's handlebar, as her very irresponsible parents sped towards town. They were inches away from construction debris in the middle of the road and riding on the outer lane, oblivious to bigger vehicles.
The mother and father were engaged in their own world while the little toddler feels the breeze rushing through her face - with no other protection. I dont need to tell you how fast the bike is going - just look at the toddler's hair and you will have an idea.
It beats logic how parents could have exposed their offsprings to this obvious danger. Isn't a bus more convenient and safer? Is this the way to live it up in the city?
If there is a sociologist, I hope he/she would study if the exposure to this mode of transport has encouraged children to become Mat Rempits in their later life. It would really make an interesting read!
