KUALA LUMPUR: Seorang ahli Dewan Negara mencadangkan agar mana-mana kenderaan dari Singapura yang mempunyai saman tertunggak, tidak dibenarkan meninggalkan negara sebelum menjelaskannya.
Senator Datuk Rabiah Ali berkata langkah itu bertujuan mengekang kegiatan menjadikan lebuh raya dalam negara sebagai tempat “menguji” kelajuan kenderaan mereka.
“Masalah lumba haram dan memandu kereta secara melulu oleh pemandu kereta mewah dan motosikal berkuasa tinggi dari Singapura menjadi satu ancaman yang sukar untuk kita selesaikan. Lebuh Raya Utara Selatan (PLUS) dari Johor Bahru ke Melaka menjadi litar ujian kenderaan mewah mereka hampir setiap minggu,” katanya ketika membahaskan usul Kajian Separuh Penggal Rancangan Malaysia ke-11 hari ini.
Rabiah seterusnya berkata saman kompaun trafik ke atas kenderaan asing perlu dinaikkan ke satu jumlah yang maksimum dan kenderaan ini seharusnya dilarang meninggalkan Kompleks Kastam, Imigresen dan Kuarantin (CIQ) selagi saman tidak dijelaskan

Singaporeans top in unpaid traffic summonses
http://bit.ly/2iVY6SF #singapore #malaysia #unpaidsummonses #errantmotorists
JOHOR BARU: Singaporeans are still tops for unpaid traffic summonses, with 184,014 summonses since 2010 estimated at millions of ringgit.
Revealing this today, Bukit Aman Traffic Enforcement and Investigation Department chief SAC Datuk Mahamad Akhir Darus said statistics from 2010 to 2016 revealed that a total of 5,358 foreign motorists have been issued arrest warrants for committing traffic offences in Malaysia, with some 3,423 of them Singaporeans.
He however declined to say how much these summonses amounted to.
“Those who have traffic summonses should settle them at the nearest police station or by other channels,” he said in a press conference at the Johor Police Contingent headquarters.
He said with the vehicle entry permit (VEP) scheduled to take effect in June this year it would be easier for police to trace the errant foreigner offenders.
“When you have a traffic summons in our system, we do not delete it even after 10 years,” he said.
It is believed that majority of the Singaporean drivers were slapped with summonses for illegal parking and speeding.
The fine for illegal parking ranges between RM70 and RM100 while for speeding is RM300.

DAP: Make foreigners pay traffic fines before exit
DAP has called on the government to emulate Singapore in forcing foreigners to pay their car summons before leaving the country, as there is a total worth of RM24 million of unpaid fines.
Kulai MP Teo Nie Ching said since 2010, there has been a drastic increase in summons accumulated by foreigner-owned cars, with only a mere 25 percent being paid, amounting to around RM8 million.
“The government should enforce (a rule) that the foreigners (have to) pay their summons before leaving the country.
“This is a big loss financially to the government when there are millions in unpaid in summons.
“It reflects badly on the government when foreigners don’t pay their summons. It makes it seem like the issuing of the summon is pointless when there is no enforcement on it,” she told Malaysiakini today.

THIS SINGAPOREAN WOMAN IS WORRIED THAT THE COPS WILL BE WAITING FOR HER ON HER NEXT TRIP TO JB!
S’pore woman says cop in Malaysia accused her of beating red light and threatened her http://bit.ly/1FNom1K
…A policeman in Malaysia accused a Singaporean woman of beating the red light — to which she claims she did not.
According to Lianhe Wanbao, Madam Qiu, a 53-year-old housewife, also claims that the cop then threatened her.
She reports that she was driving home from Johor Bahru to Singapore on Apr 4 at about 8pm.
A Malaysian cop allegedly stopped her near the customs and said she beat the red light.
Madam Qiu said:
“I told him, at that time the car in front of me didn’t even move off when the lights turned green.
“I waved at the driver to tell him to move. How could I have beat the red light in that situation?”
According to her, the traffic police was very unhappy with that explanation, and asked her to show her license.
Before she could take it out, he said, “Don’t take out your license nevermind, I’ll take down your car plate number.”

Yet to pay up Malaysian traffic fine? Foreigners face arrest soon http://shar.es/134XTm

When detained, you will need to have a Malaysian to bail you to secure your release before facing court action the following day.
Failure to get a Malaysian to bail you means that you will spend the night in the lock-up! Eat nasi kari (kali fan) for a night. 🙂
Don’t be angry. Just pay up especially when your S$ is SO strong.

Police to nab defiant foreign motorists

KUALA LUMPUR: Traffic police will soon launch a major crackdown on defiant foreign motorists who fail to settle hundreds of thousands of traffic summonses amounting to billions of ringgit issued to them for various offences since 2000.
Federal traffic police chief SAC Datuk Mohd Fuad Abdul Latiff said between 2000 and last year, there are 838,510 summonses that were issued to foreigners which remain unpaid.
He said Singaporeans who made up to 37.4% or 313,661 of the figure topped the list of foreign motorists who defaulted settling their fines followed by those from Brunei, Thailand and Indonesia.
More than 5,129 arrest warrants were issued on Singaporean motorists to date which have yet to be served on them.
“There are those from other countries too but motorists from these neighbouring countries have the highest number of summonses yet to be settled. We will be on the lookout for them if they are still here or when they enter Malaysia. We have a total of 82,745 active arrest warrants yet to be effected against these foreigners and we warn that they risk getting arrested merely for traffic offences.
…
He said in a move to create a more effective system in ensuring foreigners settle their traffic summonses, federal traffic police will soon submit a proposal to the government to have the Immigration Department roped in to assist in the effort.
Mohd Fuad said under the proposal, records of a traffic summonses issued to foreigners will promptly be fed into a centralised system with notifications sent to the Immigration Department within hours.
He said when the motorists or their vehicles arrive at exit points, they will be disallowed from leaving the country until they pay up their fines.
He said traffic police personnel will also be stationed at these borders.

The Malaysian authorities have been working on a system to blacklist repeat traffic offenders from Singapore and block them from driving into Malaysia, an official here said, following a car crash that killed Hong Leong scion Kwek Kon Chun on Sunday.
While the cause of the crash is still unknown, it has sparked an outcry against Singaporean drivers, who are accused of speeding recklessly on Malaysian roads.

FINE IDEA? Malaysia to have online payment system – to track foreigners’ unpaid summonses http://cna.asia/1GOW6zr
..To solve the problem of unpaid summonses among foreign traffic offenders, Malaysia will allocate RM30 million (S$11.6m) to develop an online payment system known as Traffic Cops.
KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia’s Home Ministry will allocate RM30 million (S$11.6 million) for its enforcement agency to develop an online payment system known as Traffic Cops.
Its secretary-general Mohamad Khalid Shariff said the system was among the methods to be implemented by the ministry to solve the problem on unpaid summonses among foreign traffic offenders. He said under the provision, the enforcement agency involved would also be equipped with plate number scanners or automated number plate recognition (ANPR) at all entry points to Malaysia.
“Through this system, we hope we can solve the issue of paying summonses involving foreign nationals, specifically Singaporeans, because at every entry point to Malaysia, foreign vehicles would be scanned by ANPR to check for their traffic offences.
“This means, they must settle their summonses before leaving the country,” he said during a ‘Session with the Media: Series 3 of the Auditor-General’s Report 2013′, in Kuala Lumpur on Wednesday (Nov 12).
