Dad's innovative way of travelling with kids on a bike
While the law is strict regarding travelling with minors on a motorcycle, this video shows how a father tried to match safety with innovation.
As we move into the month dedicated to celebrating fathers, it's always good to highlight some things fathers do differently from mothers.
While it might not always be safe or sanitary, it sets dads apart from moms.
We recently saw how a father thought letting his young daughter steer a motorcycle was wise. The little girl was celebrated for her skill, but no safety measures were taken to ensure she was secure if an accident happened.
In this video, we see a father use his creativity to ensure his children were safe and secure while travelling with him on his motorcycle.
Motorcycles are the dominant form of transportation in many Asian countries.
Watch how this father made an innovative contraption for his children to be somewhat safe while travelling with him, video courtesy of Instagram.
Most people reacted positively to the video, calling the dad caring and innovative.
One person wrote, "Yes, it’s safe for them. They are happy with what they have and how they live. No need to worry. In middle-class and lower middle-class families, this is how it is — they find happiness in whatever they have…"
What do you think about the innovative design? Would you approve even if it wasn't legal?
