The land public transport agency (APAD) has revoked the operating licence of the lorry company involved in the May 13 accident that claimed the lives of nine Federal Reserve Unit (FRU) personnel on Jalan Chikus-Sungai Lampam, Teluk Intan, Bernama reports.
In a statement, the agency said the revocation of Tashveen Trading’s operator license is effective May 29. It added that with the revocation of the license, the company is not permitted to operate or provide any services using any vehicles previously authorised under the license.
In its investigation, APAD said it found that the company failed to comply with the Industrial Code of Practice safety requirements and had been operating with a non-functional and expired GPS tracking system. The company was also found to be carrying loads that violated the type of goods specified in the vehicle’s permit.
The agency said that it would not tolerate any dangerous driving offences by public land transport vehicles that threaten the safety of road users, and advised all licensed operators to comply with the license conditions that have been set out.
The driver of the sand lorry was detained by police following the mishap and was found to have six prior criminal records. He is currently facing nine charges of causing death by reckless driving, framed under Section 41(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987.

Gps rosak, rekod lama x menyebabkan kematian total. Masalah dgn cara pengangkutan anggota FRU.
Kalau JPJ Dan APAD boleh terus bekerjasama untuk audit secara rambang syarikat penggangkutan secara proaktif sebelum berlaku kemalangan says percaya syarikat penggangkutan akan lebih serious Dalam mematuhi syarat lesen Dan permit. Jgn tunggu sampai kemalangan berlaku baru bertindak. Kini JPJ Dan apad Ada online data yg boleh dianalysis Cara big data… Dulu guna bikubdan tulis entry maka tak boleh analysis. Kini data DLM computer boleh dianalysis Dan mencari syarikat yg gagal mematuhi peraturan… Paling basic pembahruan road tax Dan pemeriksaan berkala puspakom…
Why so selective… how about many other accident involved lorry ?
More like slap on the wrist…another so-called enforcement. Seems like take peanut action only when big news. Other accidents and near mishaps…close one eye by authorities.
revoke license from the company, the owner can start other business. no worries….
