18 school vans seized in Negri Sembilan crackdown
SEREMBAN: Eighteen school vans were seized by the Negri Sembilan Road Transport Department (RTD) during a state-wide crackdown targeting serious breaches that could endanger the safety of students. The operation, known as Ops Khas Van Haram, uncovered various infringements, including vehicles operating without permits, expired motor vehicle licences, and lapses in insurance and roadworthiness certificates. The crackdown was carried out yesterday in response to public complaints and intelligence reports. Negri Sembilan RTD director Hanif Yusabra Yusuf said the operation, which ran from 5am to 3pm, uncovered 26 vans operating without valid permits. "This operation was launched in response to public complaints and intelligence regarding a rise in the use of private vans for illegal commercial purposes," he said in a statement. "This includes transporting school pupils. Such activities not only violate the law but also pose serious safety risks to passengers," he added. Enforcement teams inspected 57 vehicles suspected of operating illegally across Seremban, Rembau, Kuala Pilah and Jempol. "A total of 22 summons notices were issued for various infractions. More significantly, 18 vans were seized under provisions of the Road Transport Act 1987 for further investigation," Hanif said. He added that the most common breach was the misuse of motor vehicle licences, with 26 cases recorded. Other violations included 10 cases involving expired motor vehicle licences and eight cases where vehicles were operating without valid insurance. Hanif said six vans were found with expired Puspakom inspection certificates, casting serious doubt on the roadworthiness of the vehicles. "In terms of driver qualification, we also detected four cases of individuals driving without a Public Service Vehicle (PSV) licence, and one case involving an expired PSV licence," he said.
