Rohitha Abegunawardana is a law maker and now he has pledged support for the big boss Ranil Wicramasingha .It seems that he thinks that he can not only make laws but brake the law and even bend it as he desires.
Rohitha Abeygunawardena of the Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) had no issues in riding unregistered high-engine-capacity motorcycles in violation of the Department of Motor Traffic Act and the Road Traffic Act.
How as the high pwered ride was in support for President Ranil Wickremesinghe in the upcoming 2024 Presidential Electionm the Police turned a blind eye on the ride..
The MP, along with several other riders, rode to a meeting hall in Talduwa, Kalutara North, to in a power packed display.
According to the Department of Motor Traffic Act, unregistered vehicles are not allowed on the road unless they have a garage/dealer’s plate or a temporary permit for testing, registration purposes, or removal from customs.
A senior official from the Department of Motor Traffic (DMT) claimed that Cabinet approval was not granted regarding the registration of high-engine-capacity motorcycles but that was not aissue for Rohitha and clan.
MP Abeygunawardena has proposed new regulations for registering high-engine-capacity motorcycles in the country. He highlighted that there are many motorcycles in Sri Lanka with engine capacities over 450CC and suggested that motorcycles with engine capacities ranging from 450CC to 1300CC should be registered under special regulations, but that’s still not in the rule book and many oppose it, but it doesn’t matter, at least it seems so.
