There were many positive comments in the upload.

Another netizen wrote, “People from other countries just want to prosper the poor people of Indonesia. What about our governments?”

The habit of people not wearing helmets in Bali is often debated. As uploaded in the @canggu.shortcuts video about whether “Helmets are sexy?”

Of course, many people commented, most agreeing that wearing a helmet when riding a motorcycle in Bali is crucial to maintaining safety.

Helmets are designed to protect the head from serious injury in an accident. Of course, you know the head is a part of the body that is very vulnerable to severe injury, and helmets play an important role in protecting it.

Helmets protect the human skull and the brain within the cranium. There has been frequent news of accidents in Bali that have left bikers seriously injured while riding.
