Petronas launches Coffee Break campaign for Chinese New Year, introduces National Safest Driver Challenge

With many starting to head home for their annual Chinese New Year celebrations, Petronas has launched its annual Coffee Break safety campaign, offering complimentary refreshments, vehicle inspections and a new competition to find the country’s safest driver.

The fuel retailer is giving away free coffee and snacks on February 2 and 3 and February 9 and 10 at 150 participating stations nationwide, along with free health checks by St John Ambulance of Malaysia at selected stations. Perodua owners will also get a free vehicle inspection.

In conjunction with the campaign, Petronas has also launched its National Safest Driver Challenge in collaboration with PLUS highway, Touch ‘n Go and GPS tracking and fleet management company Katsana. To participate, motorists will need to install the DriveMark app on their phone, which will track their driving behaviour and reward safe driving actions with positive scores.

Another 50 special prize winners will get 5,000 Mesra points, RM50 Touch ‘n Go credit and RM10,000 DriveMark Personal Accident Coverage for three months, and there will also be 2,750 consolation prize winners.

Petronas Dagangan Berhad (PDB) managing director and CEO Datuk Seri Syed Zainal Abidin said, “PDB takes road safety seriously and the Petronas Coffee Break campaign is one of our flagship road safety campaigns, introduced since 1998. The campaign supports the government’s effort in reducing road accidents through reminding drivers to take regular breaks and drive safely towards their destinations.”

Minister of transport Anthony Loke added, “It is important for drivers to stay fresh and alert so that they are better equipped to drive safely and courteously. In this regard, PDB’s initiatives are most welcomed.”

      Loke has done 1000X more than our previous lazy Transport Ministers.

      Now so many people can travel with MY100 and MY50 travel.

      Loke has helped hundreds of thousands of students. Thank you Sir

        You are right. Loke is doing 1000X to publicise himself instead of doing his job. Like joe said (below), in the past, the Transport Minister did not go around to make sure his photo is taken and splashed on every news site. Other than efficiently looking at ways in finding money, Loke is proving himself to be the most useless Transport Minister we ever have. Even ministers who sleep on the job is better than he does.

          So happy we voted a clean Minister in. Previously, all looking to make money. Gomen give Rm5 bil to improve public transport, only RM2 billion will be used.

          RM3 bil masuk pocket.

            Yeap. This minister is doing his utmost best in cleaning out the coffers which is why PDRM are lamenting their cash flow problems. No more money left for transportation sector. 8 months in, all gone. CLEAN by Minister!
