Deputy Transport Minister Abdul Aziz Kaprawi says AES cameras to catch speeding motorists at 14 locations will continue to operate as usual.
PETALING JAYA: The Automated Awareness Safety System (Awas) is one step nearer to implementation after the Road Transport (Amendment) Bill was passed in Parliament today.
Awas is a combination of the Automated Enforcement System (AES) and the Demerit Points System (Kejara).
The Star Online reported Deputy Transport Minister Abdul Aziz Kaprawi as saying in Parliament that previous AES summons were still valid but that the ministry would propose that a discount of RM100 to RM150 be given.
Abdul Aziz also said the AES cameras at 14 locations would continue to operate as usual.
AES cameras will be installed in stages at other accident-prone areas along highways, federal roads and intersections.
Responding to a query, the ministry will have a system where traffic offenders can check their demerit points online.
Under the Kejara system, drivers who accumulate 60 demerit points will have their driving licences revoked.
Those with 40 points will have their licences suspended.
Motorists who beat the lights and cut double lines will receive four demerit points.
