AES won’t work without proper enforcement

 

After spending so much money on the AES, only the speedsters will be punished. All other traffic laws can be violated with no consequences and Malaysians will continue with their bad habits.

SK, The Star 

SO much has been said and millions of ringgit spent on the AES. How is it going to change Malaysians, I wonder.

Last week, I was coming out of a private hospital car park and right at the exit was a huge lorry parked at an undesignated area, obstructing my view.

I was going to turn onto a one-way street when suddenly a motorbike crashed into my car and the rider fell. He picked his motobike up and rode away. He was coming in the wrong direction of the one-way street.

One notices everyday that so many vehicles go in the wrong direction on this one-way street (Jalan Sarekei), without feeling any guilt, including DBKL officers. The DBKL office is just down the road.

On the same day, there was a motorcyclist riding at 7am along Jalan Loke Yew without a helmet. A traffic polceman on his big bike overtook him, gave him a glance and rode off.

Is it the tidak apa or Malaysia Boleh attitude. With such poor enforcement, Malaysia is becoming lawless.

So, after spending so much money on the AES, only the speedsters will be punished. All other traffic laws can be violated with no consequences and Malaysians will continue with their bad habits.

And those involved with the AES will continue to collect lots of money at the same time.
