Si aqui ay mas choques que en Bolivia, mas por las personas que manejan caros porque no miran si aye Motos...

Translation of first post:


Hello. My question is why do people wear safety clothing in New Zealand? Here I see a lot of people wearing gloves, suits and boots. I only wear a helmet. In Bolivia, people ride in their normal clothing. Why not in NZ? Do you have more crashes in NZ? When people are wearing safety clothing you can't see them properly - how can you tell who is who?

Thank you Klingon.

In the same spirit, here's a translation of what Drogen Omen said. Unfortunately my Spanish is not quite up to the task, so I enlisted the help of Babelfish:


If here ay but shocks that in Bolivia, but by the people who handle expensive because they do not watch if aye Motorcycles… I am of Ecuador and is the same there, only uses helmet for protection, but now use all clothes of protecsion, uantes and boots of motorcycle. now alive in Wellington, he is not as bad as Auckland.

Indeed, now alive in Wellington also and he is not as bad as Auckland.

But on the safety cloths question, according to my limited observations, Bolivia is a poorer country than NZ and people are much less concerned about personal safety. At least that's the way they act. Having said that, though I wear the safety cloths consistently now, when I was a poor student in the 1970s I didn't really bother. Autre temps, autre mores.

who is who? Who knows?

If this is a joke then perhaps the op is the racist, however your comment about racist NZ is uncalled for, how about you change your location the what town or city in New Zealand you are in rather than just stating New Zealand, that might be a start.

Now onto your original question, whilst I can not comment from personal experience I understand Bolivia's economy is not as vibrant as New Zealand's, that could be one of the factors in the appearance of more safety gear, also consider the climate as possibly another factor.

It could also be the Kiwis are more safety concious with regard to their skin, who really knows there are so many factors to take into consideration. Just because some choose to wear the gear, you do not need to get insulting as you appear to be about this.

Perhaps English is as you indicate your second language and understanding the nuances of our particular dialect will take time, slow down a bit and think about what people are saying to you before you go off and call folks who are essentially attempting to help you racists.

If my dodgy translation & general hilarity offended you, mate, then I apologise, unreservedly and without qualification. No offence was intended.

If you're offended by my saying Bolivia is poorer than NZ and people there less safety conscious, then I'm afraid you're just going to have to lump it. I visited Peru and Bolivia for a few weeks over the New Year 2007-2008. A few weeks doesn't make me an expert, but it's quite enough to realise these countries are poorer & people there less safety-conscious than NZ.

What does "hazte cojer" mean by the way? I know enough Spanish to order a beer or tell someone I'm not going to give them a tip, but not enough to recognise when I'm being abused. Tourists, eh! :lol:

Peace, bro.

PS: I have no objection at all to people using Spanish, or Spanglish, on this WWW site. All part of life's rich tapestry. Just be aware that most of the people reading it don't understand Spanish.
