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.
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??
