Were you part of Monday’s massive queues to pay traffic summons at the 50% discounted rate? The reason police stations, post offices and MyEG saw so much traffic was because from 1 March onwards, those with outstanding summons would have been blacklisted, and will face trouble renewing their road tax and driving licence. As with every other deadline, Malaysians love the last minute rush!
Well, if you didn’t make it, here’s good news. The Cabinet has agreed to extend the 50% discount on traffic summonses to March 10, Home Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein revealed today. He said that this is to give offenders more time to settle their summonses.
This grace period comes at a surprise (or maybe not!) as the authorities have repeatedly said that no deadline extension will be given. Reports say that despite being given a six-month grace period to settle summonses at half price, a massive 17.3 million summonses remain unpaid.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
yay for 2nd round of long queues
This is expected from our flip flop GOV….The reason they do this are:
1. General election coming
2. Not enough money to spend
3. Using scare tactic to make people pays up (blacklisted bla bla bla)
Next time when GOV said no petrol increase, means that is the time WE should run and fill up car tank full !!!!!!
well said.
i like number 1 and 2.
and yeah to add on #2. also they need to pocket some of our dough..rite.. more of a personal expenses like the stupid FLOM so – called nation interest campaigns..
ermm… what a G.
expected..govt already run out of money..
org x pernah bersyukur…
hari tu merungut tempoh x cukup sedangkan PDRM da bg tempoh 6 bulan..atas alasan xda duit..sistem down & mcm2 lagi..tp kali ni da bg peluang utk dpt diskaun lagi tp masih nak menyalak lagi..emm..mentaliti x pernah berubah…bagi kemudahan masih merungut..x bagi kemudahan pn masih merungut..lu pegi beli satu pulau..lu set up negara lu sendiri ok… :)
Janganlah salah guna istilah “tidak bersyukur”. “Syukur” mesti diikuti dengan “taqwa” kepada Allah. Tak sesuai untuk benda2 keduaniaan.
Gunalah tak berterima kasih, tak berpuas hati, suka komplen etc etc.
TQ menegur..
Syukur tu berasal dari perkataan arab syukran bermaksud “Terima Kasih”.
Kenapa mesti buat hukum sendiri?
“lu pegi beli satu pulau..lu set up negara lu sendiri ok…”
u tak tau sejarah ke? Already happened la dey, it’s called Singapore!
aku maksudkan org yg asyik xpuas hati je…cuba bina negara sendiri dari awal dan manage sebagus mungkin..jgn asyik nak komplen je…
typically org yg marah with this extension is ppl who dont hv summons or hv paid earlier… govt bodoh. flip flop… the late payers oso bodoh. got 6 months tamau bayar..
truth is govt still havent achived their quota on this summons payment. hence the extension… govt bodoh…
statement lu melambangkan lu tidak berfikiran jauh…
please think the people yang dah bersusah payah beratur before 1 march aritu..tup tup dah bole xtend? Buat apa diorg bersusah payh beratur kalau dah tau extend? ada lu fikir??
Nak enforce law mestila konsisten so org akan respect… lepas ni kalau ada lagi macam ni mesti org akan keluar statement ” ala..nnt mesti govt extend punya” so macamana org nak respect govt? ada lu fikir??
bagi 6 bulan masa byr , mmg la nmpak mcm lama. tapi kalau org to income dia RM1200 je sebulan..pastu saman nak kena byr smpai beribu mana dia larat nak byr sekaligus…mesti ambil masa byr sikit..ada lu fikir????
pastu lu mesti cakap : dah tau takde duit buat apa bwk keta laju2? lu ada tau ke sebab apa dia bwk laju? ada emergency ke apa ke? pastu ada ke diorg dpt surat yg inform diorg kena saman? ada lu fikir??
aku bukannya anti govt ke apa. Tapi mau enforce something enforce betul2 smpai org respect .
Your childish comment just make me sick.
aku maksudkan org yg bertangguh saman..aku pun x bayar saman lagi…aku pn xda duit..tp nak wt cmne..cuba gak save utk bayar saman…
kan PDRM da cakap ni saman utk tempoh 10 tahun…aku cakap utk org2 yg liat bayar..aku pn liat gak…tp aku x salahkan gomen pasal mmg aku sendiri yg buat salah…aku suka gomen buat diskaun cmni at least dpt gak ringankan beban berjuta rakyat yg x mampu nak bayar…
dah bertahun gomen ckp sape x bayar nanti kena blacklist…tp sume buat x tau je…pasal gomen masih bg peluang..tp bila gomen da btl2 laksanakan blacklist baru semua nak merungut…
org lain yg penat beratur sekurang2nya puas hati dah lepas satu beban,,dan nama mereka x di senarai hitam…
maaf klu ada yg tersinggung…
Ooo kalau kau ada emergency, bleh bawak laju-laju. Abis tu, kalau kau bawak laju, eksiden langgar kereta orang lain, ape cerita?
Kena paham laa apa tujuan saman tuu. Niatnya yang asal sebagai deterrent. Entah camana dah ditafsirkan sebagai salah satu usaha kerajaan nak rompak duit rakyat. Taktau laa samada pendekatan kerajaan yang salah (mana sistem kejora?) ataupun akal pendek kebanyakan pesalah trafik kat Malaysia ni.
Nasib laa, dah undang-undang negara ni kata bawak laju lebih had akan kena saman.
Mungkin lepas ni korang sokong Anwar Ibrahim jadi Perdana Menteri, dia akan benarkan pemandu bawak laju sekiranya ada emergency.
aku pun terasa dgn statement camtu. x bersyukur? terlalu dalam kenyataan tu…tempoh sentiasa dipanjangkan….sedangkan kita perlu satu range dan term yang konsisten…bukan hanya time pilihanraya je nak promote government bermurah hati…bukan aku x sokong gov tapi aku sebagai rakyat jelata/biasa yang memilih kerajaan…inginkan kerajaan yang konsisten…tegas pada tempatnya…mengikut alur perlembagaan yang betul seperti termaktub. tu bukan saman kalau belum masuk kes mahkamah. tu kompaun…jangan kelirukan rakyat dengan statement SALAH untuk memberatkan kes itu. kenapa hak rakyat dinafikan utk renew cukai jalan sedangkan itu membelakangkan perlembagaan…kalau lah 100k rakyat dinafikan cukai jalan…kemudian KENE SAMAN lagi sbb x renew cukai jalan…xdpt g keje….ekonomi merudum…x jalan….akibatnya akan kepada rakyat semula. Isk…isk…
After the ppl have pay the summons, wht will u do to the money?
LE MER ELECION!
nonne of your business wat, you break the law you pay summons la.
hahahahaa… another good one… dare anyone ask a policeman who gives out saman… “nak buat apa ngan duit saman ni?” hahahaa…. funny!
anycountry got summon.. u go live in UK la, u don’t pay saman.. they tarik your car/property.
Masuk dlm cukai kerajaan ler…. pandai2 la gomen nk buat apa… nk tambah toll booth kat higway ke, nk tambah toilet berbayar ke…… apa lu kisah….hahaha
what else is new la. since when hv our government made a decision and see thru it????
it ironic that some one break the way and were given 50% off the punishment. what do we learn from all this???
worry not…. there will be another or maybe more 50% off campaign coming soon.
lawyer fees going to increase by 300 – 400%… gov need $ badly to hire lawyer for court case i.e.. tbh – who the murderer & anwar liwat case!
Government should not too strict in punishing rakyat. It is consider summon if it is not bring up to court case? NO! Please change your(media) term. Rakyat should have grace period to defend themselves…whether it is proven done by them or not….as stated in Perlembagaan Malaysia….PDRM cannot blacklisted them whom cannot pay the summon…it is out of their territory…that is under JPJ jurisdiction…
In Europe, every summons will be posted to offenders TOGETHER with 2 pictures; (captured by device-camera) of the car and the picture of the driver, offender (zoomed). So no running away is possible. Bayar pun puas hati, I know I’m at fault.
In Malaysia, they will charge you for the picture if requested by the offender (if it is taken by the device-camera). What really wonders me are summons which are issued WITHOUT a device (camera) prove? Are we expected to “trust” this summons all the way? Any accusations regardless small or big it is, must be accompanied with some kind of prove. This is not “mahkamah hutan”.
Not just a piece of letter coming to your postal box (or via internet) saying you’ve committed an offence like years ago and no pictures to prove it.
Hurm.
agree!!! sum pdrm trafik gv summons say `ekzos awak salah` i reply , ekzos saya buat apa saleh? adakah ekzos saya mencuri? they open saman without guideline
Actually those cars without original parts on it.. The JPJ or pdrm got the rights to give u saman… My friend also kena when he change his P1 saga logo into Mitsu logo & also some stupid bling bling muffler (maybe too loud kut..) and a jpj officer give him a saman coz reason is simply “modify kereta” and ask him go puspakom to check the whole car somemore!!! So he have to put back the stupid logo & ori muffler back and drive into puspakom again just to reconfirm that his engine and chasis is still original, still need to bayar saman + show prove of his car pass puspakom…
spot on.
i been Europe recently, their even rarely used their car even it cheap as hell !!! check out their metro public transport, it cheap it mass it fast it on time every 2min per train & it go every where!! who else kena the summoms when everyone enjoy the public transport.
The police issues a summon. What we pay at the police station is a compound in order to avoid the summon escalated to the court. In a sense, the police offer us not to contest the charges. In exchange, the summon is dropped before it reach the court.
But dont quote me. I’m not a lawyer. ;-)
As usual, more money for projects for the cronies.
kalau macam tu kau tak payah ler beratur bayor saman
kau bakor je saman kau tu…
loll
siapa setuju angkat tangan macam saya…….hussiinnnn……..
Of course they are going to extend Paul!
If the average price of a summons is RM50 (I’m sure some are way, way higher than that even after a 50% discount), the government will be able to collect AT LEAST RM865 Million!!
And when you have a government in the red, with a gaping deficit of 5% of GDP and government debt at close to 50% of GDP, RM865 Million is a life saver.
We’re in for a rough ride in the next few years. I’m scared…
can govt write off as bad debts after this.so many extention still cannot collect.
how should we look at this? we have a caring government?
No…we have ignorant traffic offenders. The Govt is trying to start fresh, putting money motive aside. Getting ready for the AES i suppose.
Govt not supposed to extend it anymore cause Malaysian mentality wouldn’t change for ever. Offender never learn and selfish, never thing others people life on the road. When got summon did not paid.. not like others country very scared to get summon. Summon rate should be revamp cause RM300 max will not scare offender anymore, should be fine min RM3,000 + jail 6 month for big case (cross que/break red light/pass double lane & etc) & RM300 for parking fine. Those RM30 parking fine is nothing to this people right now.
Hor bout if suddenly u got dat summons coz cross que (people always make mistake la). So, go to jail la bro for 6 mon, then whole your jiran n org kampung will call u ‘penjenayah’….. stupid idea….
The truth is, rakyat gak yg susah, “Rakyat Didahulukan…..” peace no war…..
If that is the case, i believe more corruption will appear!! Then the traffic police will hunt and even frame you for what you have never did.
Unless we have a clean government, then how high the fine ppl also satisfied le~~.
49mill summons were issued, rakyat want to know how gov will spend the money. the act actually were gazetted on 1.2.2011, summons issued before that not valid but rakyat coerce to pay with no proper explanation of the law
The 1st Feb gazetted act is actually the amended act laaa, dude. It can’t be right to have no law before, right. The amended one gazetted on 1st Feb is to cater for the new summons structure, JPJ & PDRM authority over private roads and new AES system.
The summons issued before is for the offence under the pre-amended law. It still stands.
still cannot get thorugh MyEg. I still have one summon to clear, have cleared the rest ealier in Dec. but a week letter another one come up.
Really need to control my right leg.
I know that I break the law and I pay my summons accordingly, this 50% discount is a bonus. I have contested few summonses before, and for me its a waste of RM35. Still got the picture framed.
Caring govt, should be for caring rakyat. Not for those who park haphazardly (i will personally give saman to this people) or drive dangerously (then after accident start blaming everybody else).
If ppl in these two group dont like then go find an island and start your own country.
the conclusion is..to avoid all these traffic summons issue..is best to ‘pay on the spot’ when kena stop by police..u knoe wat i mean…kkekekek
Than later you tell the whole world that polis makan rasuah. Why pay if you know what you did is wrong? In Australia from Brisbane to Gold Coast the highway is 4-5 lane, none of the vehicle drives at breakneck speed. And they dont just drive small japanese/koreans, its a large holden with V8 or the fords but they can obey the speed limit. Oklah, tak payah pergi jauh, you drive towards Woodland using Bukit Timah tengok malaysian plate semua pandai je observe speed limit. Bloody hypocrites!
A big educational failure. No prizes for guessing/pointing out the culprit right.
see!… u’re truly a part of the problem… not part of the solution.
To some people, still its good news…
May i know, will DBKL saman make the offender blacklisted?
I heard a while ago that they are going to consolidate the database between PDRM, JPJ and DBKL but no news since then. So, i don’t if it is already done or not.
u all noe y?
its becoz they wanna change the saman ekor babi act.. rite now its actly only a notis not a saman once the new amendment is gazetted, the previous saman b4 the enforced date will void.. so ppl don’t need to pay the saman anymore… so they try to reduce the loss by offering the 50% disc.
by the rite now saman in boleh land is a business!
there are 2 company that will get the commission for each saman paid!
welcm to the real capitalist land dude!
I dont think the previous summons will be void. The amended act (to cater the new AES) has its effective date. So new summons will be issued based on the amended while the old ones still stand.
If you guys sooooooo afraid gomen mishandle that duit saman
so; don’t break the law at the first place lah
bila kena saman mula bising… mana duit tu kerajaan belanja
yang korang pi langgar peraturan tu korang tak sedar pulak..
bila disuruh bayar saman baru mula nak merengek
duh.
hahahahaaa… that’s a good one :D
extended to March 10….later extended to March 20…Marc 30….lastly, siapa blm bayar tak payah bayar…kasi free………. Come on la…don’t educate rakyat like this…….
ok,,we going to extend every 10 days until PM bubar parlimen….
Give any dateline pun same lah….still cant pay b4 dateline wan lah… alasan ‘I very busy lah…. how can do G like this… give extension lagi lah… ‘ …. hay….
Hi, need help here. Anyone can provide with a link or website address which will allow me to check if I have any outstanding summon? Will any outstanding summon issued by DBKL or MBPJ lead to the blacklisting stuff? Or does it only apply to outstanding summons issued by the police and RTD? Thanks in advance for any assistance rendered.
You have to register either at myeg.com or rilek.com.my
just want to share my story..
1- I checked summon via myeg and surprise that I got a ticket at Maran during my CNY holiday which I’m at the moment in BP, Johor.
2- I called IPD Maran for confirmation. He asked me to post these docs to them for re-checking
– “Surat Pengecualian Saman”
– copy of “geran”
– front and rear car picture.
3- luckily i called this morning, they admit their mistake…supposedly J word, but they put it as T. I took me 1 week and RM4.50 (for Express postage).
moral – please check if u suspect fishy summons listed under your name.
Thanks for sharing your story….I also have a summon which I’m pretty sure it wasn’t me (because it was during office hour and I was in office at the time). But I wasn’t sure if it is worth the time and trouble to go and verify the thing or not….after hearing your story, maybe I will….
Yes, If you know that you are not wrong you can always check/contest. The avenue is there. Only the matter of pursuance and persistence.
too scared to implement any law…for heaven sake its jus a traffic deadline if that thy cant hold on to it….
pathetic….
If people cant follow 6 MONTH EXTENSION deadline……susah nak cakap…
Erm..before proceeding to pay ur saman ekor, better take a look at my link regarding the saman ekor.
http://www.facebook.com/?ref=logo#!/note.php?note_id=10150107715801497&id=100000133400722
Lucky my saman ekor just 3pcs..
I SOOOOO agree with your points in your link.
This is a democratic country. Aren’t we supposed to be guilty only when proven?
Just by sending or placing a summon on your windscreen doesn’t mean you are in the wrong. They have to prove it, not the other way round.
But ppl are still paying because of their ‘kiasi’ness. (takut mati, literally)
It goes to show how ignorant we Malaysians are when it comes to defending our rights.
I’ve got 2 summons and am prepared to challenge them in court.
Btw, credits to Alifz for pointing out our rights.
why dont compund the fine…. kena saman bayar dalam 14 hari, if not double the amount…after 2 month charge 5 times the amount and also suspend road tax and owners license… see like that who still not scared to pay summons on time. Stupid G do something also cannot do nicely. say march 1st then carry out on march 1st lar, everytime also got excuse and extend. move aside and let some one who has the guts to do it…….
The moral of the story: Drive slow.
I bought a 2nd car years ago. I checked through sms, I have no summon individually, and sms-ed again: the car has 6 summons. I sms-ed again to get the full detail, the summons were issued before I bought the car. I used the website to double check, I keyed in my IC and car no., NO SUMMON. The Question is: The summons are issued NOT to the car, but to the drivers, right?
it will be accumulated. Even if u buy new car, summon not cleared. your new car still got summon.
Yupp, the summons are issued to the driver because cars cant pay and cant change, only drivers do. You can actually inform the police about this and get the real culprit to pay.
dont drive, confirm no saman, better public transport would let to lower saman count
malaysian not scared to get summon because there is no penalty… u get summon, don’t pay… or pay later got discount… got lots of summon also never mind..
in other country get summon, you get demerit points… there driver scared because after no more points, cannot drive liao..
here we supposedly got demerit system, but no enforcement – so malaysian tidak apa attitude… got summon, pay or don’t pay also never mind.
so malaysia should enforce demerit system for all drivers so driver drive more carefully to avoid getting their points deducted and losing their license.
There’s a closed-loop system here to follow. But because of incompetency of certain depts, the process stops somewhere. Go read your summon paper. Ones should either pay up to get the case compounded or attend court on the specified date. If the offender dun pay and absent at court, WHAT’s the authorities’ next action? Certainly not to wait for him pay but too bad this is the current practice.
No income for govt lorr!!
Summon for the driver, I agree with Nellie said. But govt do not care about driver, they care about who own the car, “saman ekor” for car owner, not the driver!!!!!!!!!!!!……… BODO PUNYA POLIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and GOVT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thats why as the owner of the car you have the opportunity to go and explain. Just provide proof and they will cancel it. There is a posting above shown how its done. Not a big deal.
The one BODOH is the one who commit the traffic offences and give 10000000 excuses not to pay up.
And M’sia being a heavily politicised society there will always be some half baked politician who will gladly take the up issue and putting up the other points of their own (sample as above).
Lain kali baca news dulu. Kalau tak drive, bole pegi balai bagitau orang lain bawak kereta. Bawak orang tu pegi balai skali dan suruh dia bayar. Mestila bila saman, ikut owner kereta. Dlam database diorang takde data saper yang bawak kereta.
ALERT TO ALL..
Starting from this year..The G are going to collect more money from LHDN or PDRM summons or bla bla bla…. BEWARE.. The G want to get prepared for an election & launching Mega projects soon..So, they need be prepare about Billions RM… REMEMBER THAT
So, please..please.. boycott The G by driving below the speed limit.. hehe..
p/s: Don’t say i don’t inform you okay.. I oso kena saman ops sikap last time lor .. now boycotting already…
Welcome to capitalist nation… a big business machine for G. Instead of educating the public on road worthiness, the G turns into an opportunity of making bucks. Pity you people for having such a caring G. You’ve been hit from all angles – yet we keep giving them the chance to rule us….sigh!!!
If extend also but no money no point also…kenot pay the saman…
we shall see after 10th march, will they really blacklisted all those people….once blacklisted…haiyoo..tensen, semua benda dia kacau ooo…no more extension please…
I hav few lorries and many drivers over the years, trying to pay the outstanding samans (without receiving any in my mailbox) in Pos Office, but heck, the ONLY way to pay it is by giving them the I.C. number of each drivers, they can’t check for details using the Car Reg. No. at Pos Office, How stupid is tat? So I hav to visit the Police Station in order to search using Car Reg.No. becoz I dun remember which drivers over the decades driven the lorries.
Dear people,
Photos/reports on M’sian drivers panicing at payment centres just made our people looked poorly cared of. The G really screwed us with all means.
I hope you people spend a bit of your time reading this link as being posted by Alifz before. It’s about the law and our right:
http://www.facebook.com/?ref=logo#!/note.php?note_id=10150107715801497&id=100000133400722
A bit of calculation, suppose everage summon/pax is 3. So, there’ll be some 5.8 mil people who are going to be blacklisted.
Let say, each person are going to fork out for the G RM300 per roadtax, so after 10 March, the G is going to loose roadtax revenue of RM1.74 billion per year.
Now, what’s your opinion? RM1.74 bil is too small for the G to ignore?
If it’s not, than people, I urge you to use our power to ignore this G’s threat to us.
Me myself, I vote to ignore!
Next time if I need to drive w/o r/tax, I’ll do. Let them issue more summons!
Hey by the way, I heard many M’sian supercar drivers don’t pay their r/tax. 6.0l engine, plus >RM1mil/car insurance coverage, they choose to pay only the insurance!
Do you read the facebook comments in detail. Yes, you will get the note saying that you have exceeded the speed limit etc. so you should then clarify the matter (it takes a registered post to show proof that you do not own the car or being somewhere at that time).
If not you suppose to go to court to prove where formal charges will be made against you. So you actually have a choice of either :
a) Pay the compound
b) Send a letter/Go police with evidence
c) going to court
Well for myself I will pay the compound if I’m in the wrong.
I will personally knock the head of people who refused to be educated on road safety with such flimsy reasons. Then continue to park haphazardly and speed dangerously. I wish instead of saman ekor the police will simply zapp their car with laser or something. Simply no brain!
i think the FLOM needs more money,
that’s y.
First Lady Of Malaysia?, macam burit ada la..
WISE people talk becos there is something to say but BODOH people talk becos they have to say something.
I symphatise with our children if this is the kind of adult citizens who are going to guide them into their future. Because they are BODOH they do not know what is right or wrong.If you speed, drunk drive, parking illegally , robbing banks, selling drug, snatching, raping ,sodomise people you very well pay for it . Don’t create stupid stories and blaming the government, the polis, your neighbour, the coming election,the conspiracy theories and just about everybody but themselves.
So, anyone who say something after this , just check what you say so that you don’t fall under the BODOH category .
.
ive spend abt 2k last year to clear all da saman. and im one of the 1st person to settle saman on the 1st day launch 50% disc.
then this year another 2 saman coming. and fell so “lucky + FU**ky”.
this police playing tembak2 never care abt speed limit. even extra 5km/h they still saman. thats what.
honestly, i most prefer kene tahan at the roadblock. then we still have “talking2” before last talian hayat.
kene saman ekor is just like no luck on the day. same thing ur play judi or no ekor.
Why not bring back those merits system if the govt can prove that they are not after the $$$ from the public. Blacklist those only found to be having too many summons within a stipulated time frames rather than looking $$$ from the public. Blacklist those which are really consider dangerous and had repeated offended the same mistakes. Be considerate to public parking issues as most summonses come from parking! Don’t blacklist this parking offenders unless they repeated the same mistake again and again within a short period of time. We Malaysian’s are always having problems with lack of parking spaces in town and city area. Don’t the police, jpj and the public think so! Be logical, sensible and considerate if the police, jpj or the govt are really looking for the right culprit to be blacklisted!
If the summons need to be paid, cant they just open up more counter? when come to efficiency is way more than expected n can be say as “poor”..firstly most of the post office r either offline or finish with queuing ticket.. second when comes to online transaction e.g. myeg, rilek, etc all when to system down.. thirdly when go up to jpj building n guess what the summons counter open after lunch hour is 2.45pm till 3.45pm then close… the queue r long enough n ppl like waiting for hours cos is just 2 counter inside… PPL we need to work n our time r as important as yours… please help me to understand y i still need to vote for the next election…?
lose faith……!
