MBPG to enforce ban on parking in front of houses from January 1, 2024 – up to RM2k compound

According to a report by Berita Harian, the Pasir Gudang City Council (MBPG) will enforce the ban on parking in front of houses from January 1, 2024. Pasir Gudang mayor Datuk Asman Shah Abd Rahman revealed this was decided following a special meeting held last Wednesday that saw all council members agree to implement the ban.

“The period from now until December 31, 2023 will be used to raise awareness and educate all parties by issuing notices to those involved,” Asman told the news publication. He added that MBPG won’t issue compounds on the spot as an investigation will need to be carried out first.

“We will conduct an investigation by meeting the complainant and the car owner. A notice will be given to the owner of the vehicle blocking the route, who will have up to 21 days to take corrective action. If there no action is taken, MBPG will issue a compound of RM100 up to a maximum of RM2,000 for repeated offences,” said Asman.

The ban comes after the MBPG received 349 complaints from the beginning of this year to last month regarding road obstructions caused by vehicles parking in front of houses. This is an increase from 242 complaints received in 2022.

      Are houses built with sufficient parking space within the compound in Malaysia? Propose rakyat fold the car and leave it in their kitchen. The city council’s are looking for ways to make money at the expenses of the rakyat. Car owners are already paying road tax. So don’t park in front of your house but park in the centre of the road .

    • The land outside your gates is not yours. A lot of people treat public lands like their own property; planting fruit trees, setting up kiosks, taking up sidewalks, built car porch because they extended their front door up until the gates, etc.

  • The authorities should study more deeply and carefully before taking considerations on banning of car park outside the house compound.
    One should not only listened to your council members but to listened to public opinions as well.These days every homes has minimum of 2 cars,one park inside the compound and the other is park outside their compound if not allowed then where to park.I suggest that the local council should provide or create a parking lots for every housing estate before any kind of implementations.

      Because gomen knows only normal rakyats park car outside their own house since not enough parking space. So, can summon normal rakyat anyhow and get money. Rich ppl can buy bigger houses and store lot of cars. Even rich ppl get summon by parking outside, they don’t bother. Malaysia gomen becoming stupider than ever. Nvr care abt rakyats. If really care abt law and shet, go summon and tow all cars at jb town near ‘pasar karat. 100 of cars parked in double line and obstruct traffic 365 days every night. If really upholding law, go do it. I dare they wont because 99% illegal cars parked they are Malays. Stupid Gomen!

    Saya rasa memang patut pun diorang keratan undang-undang ni sebab last year member saya pernah kena mak dia sakit then call ambulance tapi ambulance kata tak boleh lalu sebab sempit kereta kiri kanan jalan. Kesian tau. Pastu ada juga complaint dari driver lori sampah nak lalu pun susah and sempit so macam mana diorang nak kutip sampah korang. Cer pikir?
    Jangan menyusahkan org lah kalau boleh.

    i think mpaj should do the same thing too. beside my house in bukit antarabangsa is vacant, and my neighbour parks all his cars in front of this vacant house. what car? all SUV and mpv car. so the road become narrow because of his cars. and no car park inside his house. why? he use the porch to park his besi tempat sidai kain, left and right he tanam vegetable like kangkung and sawi. is he selfish? mind you, he always wear jubah and go to mosque, hes a good man, but hmm.

    Lulus design porch rumah = Majlis
    Lulus keluasan tebing jalan = Majlis
    Lulus lebar jalan perumahan = Majlis
    Assume 1 rumah 1 kereta = Majlis
    Saman kereta park di luar rumah = Majlis

    Kalau ada tetamu nak datang rumah rakyat harus naik pengangkutan awam atau jalan kaki sebab tiada parking untuk kereta tetamu.

    Sungguh bijak pandai ahli-ahli majlis kita ni. Lagi pandai dari local council di negara maju di mana rakyat mereka boleh roadside parking di kawasan perumahan secara legal dan selamat. Oh Malaysiaku.

    Memang kena buat begitu sebab ada penduduk yg masih bodoh ingatkan tanah lapang depan rumah kita tu dia punya. Dalam porch sendiri tak nak parked sebab nak keluar nanti tak payah buka pintu tapi parked rumah depan rumah jiran macam taik sampai depan ke belakang kete telunjur keluar blocking pintu gate rumah. Mana org nak masuk porch sendiri, terpaksa masuk selit tepi sideway. Bodoh punya manusia.

  • Good. I parked both cars inside. But my neighbours like to park both cars outside and leave car porch empty. Go n buy banglo! Always block the traffic. Two way lanes becomes single lane. Kids always run out no way. Cars parked outside will block the vision. I know idiots will start to say I drive fast in garden road.

    This, I believe has become an issue because people own cars, but refuse to park in their porch, afraid porch is crowded and looks untidy. Furthermore, they park with the car jutting out, often stretching up to half of the road. It’s so sickening when two lane becomes 1lane as the cars occupy half the lane from opposite rows of houses. I have seen huge cars and 4-W occupying up to the middle dividing line. Attitude is very bad. So you need enforcement to teach you.

    Fisrtly, Malaysia authorities lack enforcement and the rakyat will take advantage of the authorities tidak apa attitude.
    But when the authorities starts enforcement, the rakyat will complaint enforcement are being to strict to enforce the rules.
    I personally feel that some enforcement must be done to combat hazardous and indiscriminate parking along roadside. Some form of action MUST be done to ensure that narrow road paths are cleared and easier for traffic flow. What can be relaxed is allow parking at designated areas or where the road is wider to all parking one one side of the road only.
    Especially in Johor Bahru where houses are renovated to house many tenants, I find that parking on the roadside is a problem that must be tackle immediately. My neighbour’s double storey house 20 tenants and immagine the car porch can only park 2 cars and the remaining 10 cars are parked outside and blocking the neighbours car porch. This a a real problem I face when my car want to exit is the road is narrow and makes maneuverability difficult.

    Kita tidak boleh hukum penghuni2 taman perumahan bergitu. Ada perumahan sudah Lana dibina dgn keluasan jalan yg sempit spt rumah2 murah. Dewasa ini, satu ada dua atau tiga kereta. Jika mereka parkir diluar pagar rumah Masih boleh diterima. Bukan semua manusia bersikap pentingkan diri. Jika ada permasalah berbincanglah dgn baik2. Kita ada Pengerusi penduduk.
    Jika hendak kuatkuasakan undang2 ini, PBT sepatutnya ada sediakan tapak2 parkir disetiap kawasan perumahan. Bagaimana pula rumah2 Pangsapuri. Bangunan 45 tingkat tapi parkir yg diberi satu shj.
    PBT cuba mencari duit dgn jalan mudah dgn menyaman, sewa tapak parkir secara bulanan.
    Depan rumah saya ada dewan besar. Di dlm kawasan dewan cuma ada 15 parkir shj. Jika ada majlis, banyak kereta2 diparkir merata tempat. Takan kita nak Saman mereka juga.
    Salah dipihak PBT. Tiada perancangan taman yg betul. PBT hanya tahu nak buat duit sahaja dgn menindaa rakyat.
    Buat dulu tapak2 parkir yg selamat, baru cerita pasal Saman2 ni. Ini tidak, tapak2 kosong yg ada di takan2 disewakan kpd usecar, carwash, penjual bunga, pencawang Telco dan lain2 lagi.
    Kesianlah rakyat, kiri kanan ditindas oleh pelbagai pihak terutama oleh kerajaan. Ada kereta pun susah, takde kereta pun susah. Orang kaya senanglah cakap, mereka beli rumah besar, parking pun besar.
