A recent post has gained attention among netizens after a multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) driver was caught speeding by Road Transport Department (JPJ) officers.
In a post on its official Facebook page, Kedah JPJ recounted the incident, stating that the Toyota Vellfire driver was stopped during an enforcement operation in the district after being caught speeding.
Vellfire driver caught speeding was found with 20 active summonses in Kedah
Checks by Kedah JPJ revealed that the Vellfire had a total of 20 active summonses, all related to speeding offences that had yet to be settled. In addition, enforcement officers discovered that the vehicle’s road tax had also expired.
“The vehicle had 20 active summonses, all related to speeding violations that had yet to be settled. Even more concerning, the road tax had expired for nearly two years,” the post stated.
JPJ added that as a result of the incident, the vehicle was seized for further action, and the owner is required to settle all outstanding fines before any release will be considered.
“These records reflect a careless attitude towards the law and the potential danger posed to other road users,” the post concluded.
Malaysians’ reaction to the post
Netizens flooded the comment section with their thoughts and reactions:
“I don’t understand how someone can still drive around when their road tax has expired for two years. If my road tax had even expired for a week, I’d already be too scared to drive.”
“It’s really strange with most Vellfire drivers. Not all, but many of them drive faster than actual sports cars. It’s a family car. Even when it’s fully loaded, they still speed. If it were a sports car, maybe it would make more sense.”
“There should be a feature in the JPJ app that allows anyone to check another vehicle’s road tax and report it directly to JPJ. It’s just worrying in case you get into an accident with such a car.”
“There are too many cases of people not paying road tax or insurance, while regular vehicle owners pay every year. Higher fines and stricter penalties should be imposed. A supercar’s annual road tax can be RM20,000, but the fine is only RM3,000; that’s pocket change to them.”
