KUALA LUMPUR: A total of 28,811 notices have been issued by the Road Transport Department (JPJ) for various offences under Ops Khas Motosikal since it was implemented on Nov 1.
JPJ director-general Datuk Aedy Fadly Ramli said as of the seventh day of the operation, the most common offences are not having a licence or road tax.
He said a total of 59,116 motorcycles had been inspected so far.
“A total of 23,895 summonses were issued for not having a licence and road tax alone,” he said here on Friday (Nov 8).
“The excuses given include not having time to renew the road tax, not having time to collect the licence, and so on.
“I advise all road users, especially motorcyclists, to renew their road tax and insurance. If anything happens, it will cause hardship not only to them but to other road users,” he added.
Aedy Fadly also said JPJ will confiscate any motorcycle without insurance or road tax, and with extreme modifications.
Earlier, he attended the closing ceremony of the Kuala Lumpur-level MyLesen 2024 programme at Setiawangsa Community Centre Hall here.
At the ceremony, a total of 1,824 people received B40 MyLesen benefits including class B2 driving licences, vocational public service vehicle (PSV) e-hailing licences and PSV bus licences. – Bernama
