i know admin will get annoyed but..... on the subject of drag racing what was goin on in Oroklinin last summer. i think it was an unfinished road and people were having drag races at nite. i also saw lots of crazy greeks wheelying and racing motor-bikes wearing a pair of shorts and no helmet. not that i care but surely even cyprus people have learnt that helmets go on their heads not their elbows. or inmost cases the side of the road

You'd be surprised demetriou... although the police are clamping down on road rules, you still see a large number of idiots riding around on their bikes without helmets, or even worse, with their helmets danging from their arms... :roll:

Loath as I am to say this, the only thing that will clamp down on this is the installation of cameras at traffic lights (to prevent the infamous 'Cyprus creep' as cars slowly move forward on a red light); speed cameras on major roads and harsher penalties, including losing licences and community service for persistent rule breakers.
