DBKL gives errant motorists until September 30 to settle summonses, after which JPJ blacklist looms

Motorists with traffic summonses issued by Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) have been given a month to settle fines issued up to August 31 or face getting themselves blacklisted by the road transport department (JPJ), The Star reports.

“Motorists are given a month, between September 1 and 30, to settle their outstanding traffic offences, and there will be no extension given, following of which, they will be blacklisted by the JPJ,” DBKL corporate planning department director Khairul Azmir Ahmad said via a statement.

He added that the discount is only applicable for wrongful parking offences at metered parking spots and for summonses issued by DBKL, and are not applicable to offences that are already blacklisted or are currently on-going in court as well as where an arrest warrant has been issued.

To sweeten the month-long deal, the council is offering discounts to motorists with a flat rate of RM20 for motorcycle offenses, RM30 for offences involving cars, MPVs, vans, lorries, 4WDs and SUVs, and RM50 for heavy vehicles such as buses, tractors, large lorries, cranes and trailers.

Back in June, it was reported traffic offenders had yet to settle a total of 2.5 million compound traffic notices issued by Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) as of May 31 this year. Last year, in a similar action, the Petaling Jaya City Council (MBPJ) said it had sought the help of JPJ to blacklist around 1,400 errant motorists for failing to settle their outstanding traffic compounds.

  • Dbkl & jpj urusan yg berlainan. Jpj x boleh blacklist org yg x byr saman dbkl. Dah ada kes mahkamah sebegini. Mahkamah dah nyatakan jpj x boleh blacklist pengguna yg x byr saman majlis tempatan. Tp knp masih guna ugutan yg sama kpd pengguna? Terang2 membodohkan rakyat. Kalo ada saman tertunggak, dbkl patut bw pengguna ke mahkamah. Itu shj. Kecewa betul la dgn sikap bodoh begini. Patut ada pihak yg mempunyai pengetahuan menegur mereka ini.

    No need to hassle to pay laaah!!
    MTD, Mr Anthony Loke have thought us Malaysian a very important and valuable lesson of life, if you don’t PAY, in the future it might be waived. If you PAY now , it will be at your loss… Thank you minister for supporting all the traffic offenders and punishing the honest and sincere.

    Khalid Samad mungkin dah jadikan kutipan saman sebagai ‘pendapatan teras’ DBKL / Kem. Wilayah.
    Mesin byr parking byk rosak. Kadang tu kita bayar sampai kul 11.20pg, tak sampai 15 minit kemudian, dah kena saman. Kalau parking block jln atau luar petak – saman lah, kunci tayar ker, angkut kereta pun takper. Ini kereta dok di petak elok jer.
    Baik Khalid Samad pegi banteras pusat pelacuran ker, bersihkan sungai ker dan kutip cukai pintu ke syarikat2 kaya.
    Apa lah menteri PH ni? Zaman BN dulu DBKL saman jugak, tapi reasonable.

    PH hilang 8 undi di rumah ku dalam PRU15 nanti.
