KUCHING (Aug 16): Bau police impounded eight motorcycles and issued 49 summonses to motorcyclists for various traffic offences during an operation last night. Bau district police chief DSP Dr Daram Ruer said the operation, held from 6pm to midnight, covered several locations including Jalan Bau-Batu Kawa and the Bau Bazaar area. 'The operation involved eight traffic personnel, including two officers and six constables. A total of 58 motorcycles and 65 individuals were inspected,' he told the media today. The eight motorcycles were impounded due to having been heavily modified, which is an offence as stipulated under Section 64 of the Road Transport Act 1987. Of the summonses issued, 16 were for illegal modifications and eight for not having rearview mirrors. Other offences included not having a licence plate (six), not wearing a helmet (six), riding without a licence (five), not displaying a P-plate (three), expired road tax (three), and riding against traffic flow (two). Daram reminded road users, particularly motorcyclists, to follow traffic rules and stay vigilant. He also urged parents to monitor their children and prevent them from engaging in illegal racing. 'The Bau district police will continue to act against traffic violations, and we encourage the public to provide information on illegal racing activities by calling 082-763311,' he said.

JPJ seals 270 luxury vehicles without road tax, insurance coverage through Ops Luxury
The operation is being carried out continuously across all states to take firm action against luxury vehicles being driven without a valid motor vehicle licence (LKM) or insurance. – Bernama photo JOHOR BAHRU (Aug 16): The Road Transport Department (JPJ) has seized 270 luxury vehicles nationwide for not having valid road tax and insurance under Ops Luxury, carried out since July 1. Its director-general, Datuk Aedy Fadly Ramli, said the operation is being carried out continuously across all states to take firm action against luxury vehicles being driven without a valid motor vehicle licence (LKM) or insurance. 'This operation is a stern measure against luxury vehicles that are being driven without paying road tax, with some also without insurance coverage. The vehicles will be detained and seized until the owners settle all outstanding road tax, insurance, and summonses before they are released,' he told a press conference at JPJ Taman Daya recently. Also present were JPJ senior director (Enforcement) Muhammad Kifli Ma Hassan and Johor JPJ director Azmil Zainal Adnan. Aedy said the seized vehicles included a Ferrari in Johor Bahru, which was without road tax and insurance, a Lamborghini Huracán with an annual road tax of RM12,000, and a Rolls-Royce in Kuala Lumpur with unpaid road tax of RM29,000 per year. He revealed that some of the vehicles had not had their road tax renewed for more than a year, with one case in Kuala Lumpur involving a lapse of up to three years, where the owner claimed to have 'forgotten' to renew it. 'Ops Luxury will be expanded nationwide, including to Perlis, Sabah, and Sarawak. This is not a one-off action, but a continuous effort. 'We do not want luxury vehicles on the road without valid road tax and insurance, as the risks to public safety in the event of an accident are extremely high,' he said. Aedy added that legal action has been taken against several vehicle owners in court, while those who have settled their road tax and insurance arrears have been allowed to reclaim their vehicles. – Bernama Aedy Fadly Ramli lead luxury vehicles road tax Road Transport Department
