Cracking down on drivers and riders treating the Kuala Lumpur-Karak Highway as their personal racetrack, police conducted Op Khas Bersepadu Genting, or Combined Genting Special Operation. Erecting a roacblock at the Gombak toll plaza, police and JPJ issued a total of 572 summons over the two-day exercise.
In a Berita Harian report, Superintendent Azman Shariat of the Traffic Police Investigation and Enforcement Division said the operation focused on bringing to heel drivers of luxury sports cars and high-powered motorcycles that speed along the highway, usually on weekends. Of the 572 summons issued, police handed out 355 citations out of the total.
Of these, 94 summons were for offences related to driving licences, 31 for not having a wing mirror, 54 for road tax offences and 90 for non-conforming number plates. The balance of summons were 12 for not wearing a seat belt, 15 for not displaying ‘P’ or ‘L’ plates and 54 for miscellaneous offences.
One of the luxury vehicles stopped for checks during the operation was found to have not paid road tax for 10 years. Meanwhile, several other drivers were detained for drug offences, dangerous driving, driving under the influence and using false number plates while a female foreign national was held for not having valid travel documents.

Later Mentri gets scolded by the pipu, then malu and straight cancel all samans.
Was summon once at this Karak Highway but feel mad bcos they catch me during downhill … even if we set auto cruise at 90km/h, the car speed a bit more than that!.
After losing money to Unker Lim, then later lose more money to Unker Madey. Wakakaka!
90 is snail pace. normal car can easily exceed 150 down hill , depending on drivers balls
They should keep this up every other week and setup a road block around Ulu Yam on weekends too.
agree, we are not actually against them be it bikers or cars convoy but please treat public road as public road..
What a wonderful country we live in with these kinds of drivers on the road:(
Loki: money come, money come! KA-CHING!
“Cracking down on drivers and riders treating the Kuala Lumpur-Karak Highway as their personal racetrack”, “Erecting a roadblock at the Gombak toll plaza”
yes.. enforcement is a must and good job to the police.. but to claim that putting up a roadblock at the toll plaza was targetted at stopping “racing” on Karak is stretching the truth a bit. All the racing happens after the toll plaza.
you should say the racing happend after to roadblock then
