Targeting riders raises questions

To the Editor,

Re: Mounties crack down on motorcycle riders, May 3.

So about 20 per cent of vehicle deaths happen to motorcycle riders. Let’s concentrate on the people that are different. Who cares about the ‘safety’ of the other 80 per cent of deaths?

I’m asking if any cops have passed a ministry of motor vehicle exam to operate a decibel meter, if they are licensed mechanics capable of doing government vehicle safety checks?

Lawyers are checking now. If their track record for decibel meters becomes near the abuse of Taser use, well just where is society going?
