PETALING JAYA: The owner of a dilapidated Perodua Kancil, without a roof and damaged front right tyre, has been arrested by police.
Police acted after netizens started viralling a video clip of the rundown vehicle. It attracted lots of attention because of the unbelievable state of the car.
He has been arrested for not having a driver’s licence and endangering others on the road.
The driver, 47, was arrested in Bandar Metropolitan, Kepong, at 1am today.
Kuala Lumpur Traffic Investigation and Enforcement Department chief Zulkefly Yahya said further inspection found that the driver had not applied for a road tax.
He said the driver also owned a green Kancil with a broken left rear view mirror, but without a registered number plate.
“Both cars are unfit to be on the road and are a danger to other road users,” said Zukefly in a statement, according to Berita Harian.
Spotted along the streets of Kepong, the Kancil previously made its rounds on social media due its poor condition.
The vehicle has been confiscated under Section 64 of the Road Transport Act 1987 for further investigations. - FMT
