Go to the Bermuda news section for snippets of new from BermudaA wondrous invention
January 17, 2009
Dear Sir,
With all the publicity that is currently being given to those of us who
have the privilege of operating motorised vehicles on our roads, whether
they be automobiles or bikes, one would believe that they all should be
fitted with indicators at the time of purchase. What with the price one
has to pay when making a purchase.
Perhaps all motorised vehicles do come with indicators already installed
and that for whatever reason the salesperson does not show or inform the
buyer that this wondrous device is installed for safety purposes and is
included in the purchase price If you have already checked for and found
this wondrous device, "great". If not, I would recommend that
you return to the dealership from which your purchase was made and ask them
to show you where the indicator switch is on your vehicle, and should they
not be able to find it, you should ask them to install one as you have already
paid for it.
I can only imagine the frustration that some road users must feel when they
come to a roundabout, or have the need to change direction that they have
no way of informing their fellow road users of their intention to turn either
left or right. This must be very frustrating to those persons who believe
in the safe and courteous use for all while on our roads. I am sure that
the hard working members of the Bermuda Road Safety Council, will be more
than pleased to know that as part of being a safe and courteous road user,
we are all now using indicators at the appropriate times.
KENNETH G. STONE.
