A tourist dancing in her motorbike seat in Bali has sparked backlash online, with one community Instagram page blasting her for her actions. But is the criticism entirely justified?
It’s 2023 and tourists are already acting up in Bali. The offending incident this time? A woman grooving around on her motorbike while driving without wearing a helmet in the Mendoyo province of Bali.
As the woman enjoyed her dance session, the car behind her was momentarily unable (or unwilling) to overtake. The clip sparked debate on social media with some bemoaning tourists’ inability to follow the rules and others saying this tourists’ laissez-faire approach to safety fitted in quite well with the local scene.
