Motorists who park illegally on the road leading to the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) and Kuala Lumpur International Airport 2 (KLIA 2) will face stern action by the police. According to The Sun, the Selangor police chief commissioner Datuk Mazlan Mansor said the police force has been issuing up to 30 summonses a day for traffic obstruction.
“We found most vehicles were stopping by the roadside near the fuel station to wait for the arrival of passengers before going to the KLIA 2 and KLIA terminals to pick them up. Some motorists even parked their vehicle illegally,” said Mazlan.
“We won’t spare anyone after this. Not even drivers waiting in their car because Malaysia Airports Holdings Bhd (MAHB) is providing free parking near both airport terminals, for those picking up passengers and to facilitate smooth flow of traffic at the airport area,” he added.
Mazlan said that the police will not make compromises with “errant motorists” and will continue to issue more summonses for those who ignore the law. “Each offender can be fined up to RM300 and for those who leave their vehicle parked illegally, we will tow them to the district police headquarters. We will monitor the traffic situation through the closed circuit television (CCTV) and if needed, we will dispatch our traffic personnel to the scene to take action against these traffic offenders,” he said.
MAHB managing director, Datuk Badlisham Ghazali on Friday said MAHB provided free parking at the side of the Long Term Car Park (LTCP), or 30 minutes free parking inside the LTCP. Even if the waiting time exceeds more than the stipulated free period, a reasonable parking charge of RM2.50 per hour will be imposed, he noted.

Syabas PDRM!!!
Illegal parking and traffic obstruction on roads especially Friday. Tolong isu more summonses for those who ignore the law and those vehicle parked illegally, tow them to the police headquarters.
Dun forget Saturday & Sunday mornings also Thursday & Friday nites too. Why only do enforcement on 1 day?
This issue has been there since day 1, after so many years, now only take action. Msia memang blh.
Drivers inside, waiting. Police come, they drive away. Make one round
Then give them a waiting area la….bodoh
At least read the article b4 bash lar.
Ha ha joke of the century
Waiting area already provided la… bodoh.
All those are uber/grab drivers waiting rider ping.
KLIA routes are most untung
We should be allowed to claim for parking fees if flight is delayed.
Thanks for bringing this topic out. I personally didn’t know that there is a 30 minutes FREE Parking available in LTCP. I’ll make use of this facilities next time. TQVM.
So there is someone here that read the article b4 commenting. Kudos to u.
The truth is I didn’t read the whole article. They say a picture tells a thousand words & the picture is in BLUE says it ALL. Only a blind man cannot read it.
With all due respect to the truly blind (OKU), there r way too many ‘blind’ pipu here as seen from comments above.
That I agree with U.
30 minutes free parking? if the driver drives out and turn back in again, can get another 30 minutes free?
Supposedly, yes.
Those cars are not who waited for their family. They are UBERian and GRABian waiting for almost 800 queues for their turn!!
Uber/grab got their own waiting area la dey. Opposite the ltcp.
Where is the free parking? I think they should put up more big signs on this.
See the big blue sign in this article.
I’d rather the PDRM focused on criminal issues such as corruption and theft than issuing fines and generating revenue.
Corruption is MACCs purview and theft rate has went down. Anyways why shud PDRM discriminate the various kinda crime? ALL CRIME must be prioritised.
30min free parking actually is standard in most of the car park system…after 30minutes u have to pay it…if u jam at the exit and exceed 30minutes..u have to pay already… :o
