TAIPEI - Motorcycles and mopeds have been spied zipping onto highways in the past month in Taiwan - something their riders are banned by law from doing.
The act of defiance is part of protests against decades of government restriction on motorcyclists' road rights that started on July 2 and will continue until July 31.
