Talk about strange laws. They passed a law in Guatemala  that forbids men from riding as pillion on a motorcycle. They will only allow women for riding as pillion. The reason; more and more attacks and murders are being committed by men riding on the back of a motorcycle. Since the beginning of the year, already some 60 bus drivers have been shot by male pillion passengers.
So apparently it's less likely that it's a girl that will shoot you....
If you get caught as a guy riding pillion, you get fined $125.
I don't know... this is strange. It looks like another one of those knee-jerk reactions by politicians.
