CYBERJAYA - In April 2023, an MRT feeder bus got stuck in Cyberjaya due to cars illegally parked on both sides of the road. The incident happened at the MRT Cyberjaya City Centre station, and it caused a lot of inconvenience for commuters.
The video of the incident went viral on social media, and it sparked a debate about the issue of illegal parking at MRT stations. Many people were angry that the drivers had illegally parked their cars, and they said that it was selfish and inconsiderate.
The Land Public Transport Commission (SPAD) has since issued a statement saying that they will take action against the drivers who were involved in the incident. They said that they will be issuing compound notices to the drivers, and they will also be working with the local authorities to ensure that illegal parking does not happen again.
This incident is a reminder that illegal parking is a serious problem. It not only inconveniences commuters, but it also poses a safety hazard. We all need to do our part to make sure that our roads are safe and accessible for everyone.
Here are some tips on how to avoid illegal parking:
- Always check the parking regulations before you park your car.
- Make sure that you are parking in a designated parking spot.
- Do not park in front of fire hydrants, bus stops, or other areas that are prohibited for parking.
