Despite repeated police operations, Kuala Lumpur motorcyclists are a stubborn lot, refusing to stop using motorcycles with noisy exhausts. In a mid-week operation conducted in conjunction with the Department of Environment (JAS), Kuala Lumpur traffic police (JSPT KL) nabbed a number of motorcycles for noisy exhausts.
All seized motorcycles were brought to JSPT KL headquarters at Jalan Dang Wangi for testing by JAS using a calibrated decibel meter. Owners of non-compliant motorcycles were issued summons and required to undo and rectify any modifications done to their vehicles before being released.
This is after a similar operation against motorcycles with noisy exhausts the previous month, where police conducted checks on offenders under the Environmental Quality Act 1974 – Environmental Regulations (Vehicle Noise Emissions) 1987. ACP Mohd Zamzuri Mohd Isa, head of JSPT KL, was in attendance during the operation.
what took you guys so long? Lately is even worse, they added new illegal parts, YELLOW OFF ROAD LIGHTS. Using it on brightly lighted roads? Also applies to cars. Cannot brain these ppl.
Jokers
Now a day despite the noisy bikes, many of them using illegal galling spotlight, some even worst come with yellow light and flashing all the way driving fast at the congested road… really no brainer this kind of biker especially those ride with big bike…
The bikers aren’t to be solely blamed. Authorities should either ban these noisy exhausts or stop sellers from selling these non compliant aftermarket exhausts/accessories.
Theese bikers would happily pay the summons and then wheel into the bike shop to fix yet a louder exhaust.
Same goes for cars too.
funny how the law works right? They jail drug sellers and trafickers. But for illegal exhaust and parts, the sellers and distributors all get away without a fine.
How bout those mpv or sports car with motorcycle number plate size?
hardly solved the problem
Why recurrent problem,MR PDRM ?
Just increase the fines to RM3000, with 6 bulan penjara,give Ajibkor some company .
Another hardcore solution..sita the blardy bike permanently.The buggers got loans,their problem.
What about noisy Harley Davidson??
Just scrap the bike on the spot. These rempits famous until tourist also complain
Even as a rider, i hate those bikes with loud exhaust and even some newer bikes with angled stock exhaust. One thing they have in common is the angle of their exhaust tip. It shoots out exhaust directly to the face of the rider behind them when riders are stopping at a junction or traffic light. Since those fitted with loud pipe has tuned engine, the stinks of the exhaust is just bloody annoying.
Some stock bikes are also the same, i encounter that with Honda RSX and if not mistakan with the Vario.
Should i am stuck behind them when stopping, i will either moved forward beside them on the opposite side of the exhaust or if the surface is flat, moved even closer so my front coverset disperse their exhaust.
Pretty sure you wont like me very much if you are stuck behind me.
My stock exhaust is a straight shot to your face. And its 800cc worth of exhaust, not a 150cc bike. I kena complain before from riders behind me. Hahaha. Also pretty sure my factory exhaust wont pass the noise test either…..but that’s what the bike comes with.
If its comes from the factory it’ll pass
Personally i dont mind bigger bike…why?
I will give them space especially when stopping at junction or traffic light as they really need the space. Plus, i can clearly see u when approaching. With moped, i will be too late when i saw the exhaust.
Most of bigger bike i encounter on the road while commuting respected smaller bike, they will let us through as we can split easier between cars, when the road opens up, i will give way to them. We exchange nod as sign of mutual understanding.
These loud exhaust moped…they squeeze themselves to be in front when stopping.
ini aku sokong tak kira moto kecik or besar… kalau boleh terus sita and minta tukar and ekzos tu di musnahkan
Why is this only in KL?
It will never solve the problem and even more will crop up.
Why? Cause the penalty is minor especially considering the income power in KL.
Raise the penalty to the point it’s not only a warning but a true lesson.
Abang grab now semua making good money, no problem paying a little fine and rectify modifications without confiscating the illegal parts?
Come on lah… A better solution is required.
Great start, now how about those annoyingly loud whistling lorry?!
Thank you Mr Polis, gotta catch ’em all…
99% is type M. Type C wants a fast bike, they will just buy a superbike and very unlikely to modify their bike.
Tangkap penuggang dan pomen motor yg pakai dan modified ekzos bising kemudian tarik telinga diorg ke ekzos dan rem ekzos bising tu sampai pekak telinga. Itu jer cara nak ajar diorang ni.
the worst offenders is those slow cup bike with extremely loud exhaust deliberately bakar the throttle in front of people beside the road (restaurants or stalls), they are so damn loud and slow means that your ear getting the full send for a very long time until they finally reach far enough from you for the sound to diminish
Please spay and neuter them as well
So that they don’t reproduce
Thanks
