 چرا جامعه اکثر مقررات راهنمایی و رانندگی را می پذیرد اما ممنوعیت موتورسیکلت سواری خانمها را قبول نمی کند؟

  People often obey many traffic laws in urban traffic, even if there are no police.

  Kyomarth Ashtarian, professor of political science at Tehran University, wrote in Sharq newspaper:

People often obey many traffic rules in urban commuting, even if there are no police;  Because they know its benefits.  There is an internal power in social discipline, which is a kind of semantic and normative power.

This power does not depend only on the police and has its meaningful presence even without the presence of the police.  In other words, without the presence of the police, social discipline is not emptied of power and still has its functional meaning, but on the other hand, consider women's motorcycle riding, which has no meaning and as a result, there is no inner strength to comply with it.

Here we say that this provision has been emptied of meaning or power, which means that it is not observed even with the presence of the police.

Material and semantic power is necessary for social life.  The government is formed based on this power capital.  When a government is depleted of this capital, it has lost its character, and we say that a government has suffered a "vacation of power".
