The motor bikes are parked in the wrong place according to those who planned for space utilisation! However, the mismatch is accepted as a way of life!
I have pondered over it! The regulating process is in disarray when people discard it altogether and feel vindicated when no corrective measures are taken.
The ethics of any regulating guideline is that it is meant for the larger benefit however inconvenient it might be personally!
The common good subsumes personal choice in a civil society unless it has to do with a moral dimension of life!
I feel concerned about this tendency to disregard common good and fiercely defend personal convenience! I sensed this when a waiter requested a couple move to a table of two for dinner in a restaurant, instead of occupying a table meant for four! The loud resistance put up by them while others were waiting to be seated made me realise that our sense of entitlement has taken precedence over common good!
We are humans called to live mindful of the common good!
