Police motorcyclist fine for not carrying reflective vest

Do motorcyclists must wear reflective vest?

That is the question that, 23, after Friday Temuco out for a walk on his motorcycle and was fined by police for not wearing a reflective vest.

 

“I was going way to Farm when I bumped into a couple of carabineer who performed a routine check. I asked the papers and as a day and had everything in order, I remained calm,” said the young man LUN.

 

He added that “we were finishing when that stare and ask each other: ‘What do we do with the reflective safety vest? We pass the offense or not? The police were uncertain what to do.”

 

Braham said at the crossroads, one of the customs officers decided to take the radio and ask, getting in response a ‘yes’, so it must be presented in the local police court on 12 January.

 

His case went viral on social networks and reached the ears of the National Traffic Safety Commission, who confirmed through his Twitter account that the completed part is illegal.

 

Despite Cohasset clarifying the doubts on this issue it is because Article 75 of the modified decree 164 of the Ministry of Transport not specified which vehicles must have the vest.

 

It is recalled that the only obligations of clothing of motorcyclists are those in the decrees 231 and 234 of the Road Traffic Act, which relate to the clothing biker and using reflective material in the hull.
