There are three main causes of road accidents in Malaysia. According to The Star, Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Mohamad Fuzi Harun said those causes were fatigue, use of mobile phones while driving and poor attitude of drivers.
“We are focusing on eradicating traffic offences, especially driving on the emergency lane, cutting queue, speeding, using mobile phone while driving and jumping the red light,” he told the press yesterday after launching Ops Selamat 13/2018 for the upcoming Hari Raya celebrations.
He also said the number of accidents was generally on the rise as there were more cars on the road each year. To help curb this problem, leave for 80% of the police force had been frozen during Hari Raya. “That means 93,600 personnel, including 6,400 PLUS traffic police, will be on duty,” he said.
The police force was given 29 cars to facilitate its operations this coming Raya, comprising a mix of Mitsubishi Outlander, Mitsubishi ASX and Proton Preve. Ops Selamat 13/2018 kicks off today and ends June 22, 2018.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
not number plate kah??last time they said number plate can cause accident…lol
betul…lolz.
Enforce lane hogging, slow car on speed lane very dangerous
yup, i second that, it tends the following car to cut from left side.
Add more, ppl who’s not giving signal when enter junction, or change lanes.
That was BN time mah. The poor now complain they dun have fancy plate how? According to them, fancy plate is more important woh.
Aint dat the truth, PT! I mentioned it in the previous article about safety on the road, and basher scoffed it. Now their own gov concurred with my PoV. Heres a message to him: “I told u so”.
Deswai bus company and drivers advised to settle outstanding traffic summonses. Safety on the road …
Settle saman is not action but reaction. Loki needs to find way how to ensure buses r safe for use, drivers r well trained, not exploited, not on substance, not doing too many trips, paid well, & given sufficient time to rest between trips. Not just waving his saman book at every Tom, Dick & Harry. That oso I need to teach him kah???
So where were you when the old government also needed teaching? Or 60 years not enough to learn the ropes ah?
Who says they dun? They setup SPAD as the enforcement agency unlike now where Loki disbanded it instead, effective telling the lawbreakers to have a free meal on the roads. SPAD was so effective that their staff were threatened until their homes. Instead, this Loki dun have experience, yet act like he do but instead of working with the bus sector to enhance safety, he waves his saman book like a king.
A 60 yo adult dun do that, but a petulant child does.
Try to rebuild your sunken ship before you point out other people’s problems…..oh wai
Sunken ship? Our Flying Dutchmen just went down and cruises underwater, b4 emerging & bringing down ur pompous overly decorated luxury yacht.
should impose heavy penalty on mobile phone use, ban driving license or fine more than 1k etc
Money can settle
clean Government now….money cannot settle like the old korup gomen
Kena terima hakikat sebahagian besar rakyat mempunyai kesedaran sivik rendah walaupun mempunyai pendapatan tinggi dan mampu memiliki kereta berprestasi tinggi. Mudah kita lihat bukan saja dalam bab pemanduan tetapi lain-lain termasuklah integriti, rasuah dan ketirisan – orang awam atau pihak berkuasa. Mudah2an selepas PRU14, akan memberi sedikit perubahan cara berfikir.
Why left out kopi lesen drivers? Those are supposed not qualified to drive on the road!
Need lesen meh?
Accidents also may or probably due to drivers poor health as well and doubt it’s all fatigue…
OMG. That Ferrari Driver must learn how to “Park” B4 issueing him a licence.
Pretty sure that Ferrari driver wasn’t trying to park the car, but instead he lost control driving at high speed. Anyways, bad parkers can be anyone and any car. I have seen many times small cars like Kancil and Axia being parked like the drivers just don’t care. Another sign of poor civic-mindedness among Malaysians.
Bro, cannot take a joke is it? He did mention “Park” with the inverted commas ma.
Despite endless campaign by the govt, ppl still go play handphone while driving……if accident happen then bye-bye to family and friends…. and one less stewpid reckless road bugger on the road.
