MP3 While Riding

[pimpthugsta]

Is it allowed? Is there any law on it?

[loufu]

not too sure thou.. but to me it is equal to talkin on the phone.. so even it is not legally illegal.. i would say it wil expose the rider to more danger n harm..

[coolcat]

No law on this so far, not encouraged. Short answer: no illegal.

Disagree, Traffic police encourage that either you stop by the road to answer your call, if not, you better use an earpiece.

 

Secondly, it depends on the volume of your music, in some cars, they installed a "disco" in them, which they really can't hear/notice whatever is happening outside of that metal casing.

 

So, which is more hazardous?

[Wildswans]

Either way it is hazzardous and distracting...

[pimpthugsta]

if i use its can hear the song and can hear the road la... what i wanna know is will kena anything if get stopped or not lol

[Nicholai]

I do that sometimes but I only use 1 piece of the earphones so that I'm able to hear my surroundings. Went through a few road blocks, seemed all right.

[deckard]

very dangerous. better don't!

[tabako]

i listen to my ipod all the time...

 

Dun get in ear earphones cos u can't hear anything. And turn the volume down to a level u are comfortable with the surroundings.. For me, i always able to hear my own engine. So people horn u, sure no problem.

Legality of this issue is yet to be confirmed, however, based on my experience, I went through a few road blocks while listening to music on my left ear. No questions asked by the kind police officers.

HmM no Know... Better Be Save then Sorry

[Wildswans]

Still better not to.... it can make you lose concentration

[Nicholai]

I agree. I usually do it when I'm out late at night when traffic is a breeze. Kinda bored sometimes...

[buttbutt8]

it is not against the law. It has been discussed already.

But make sure ur hands are not on the music device fidgeting it and keep it hands-free.

It is just like using a hands-free set to talk on the phone mah so not an offence.

ive had few close shaves even while cycling with my mp3 plugged in... with motorcycles, i dunt think its a gd idea..legal or not....hehe..

 

safety first ladies and gentlemen..

[Wildswans]

[QX]

should be alrite.. i also being doing this for around 1 year liao.. so far so good... i only use my left side and the volume not loud just to comfortable level... still can hear my engine...

[Wildswans]

Everyone always think they can handle it until something happens...

 

But to each his/her own.... just try to be safe

[encryptor]

Asked TP officer at exhibition about this. Its not illegal. But was advised against it. Officer said even though it is not illegal, it can be used against you in case of an accident. Better be safe then sorry rite?

[revenge]

later listen to fast songs den very sonk den ride fast fast....

[coolcat]

Is it allowed? Is there any law on it?

 

The thread starter asked whether it is allowed. I gather he/she meant whether it is illegal? Answer is "No", it is not illegal.

 

Whether it is safe or not is another thing. For use of handphones there is a specific legislation against this.

 

Cheers

Not illegal but not really safe either
