Police seize 21 motorcycles for violating traffic rules

 


Twenty-one motorcycles were seized in Ops Samseng Jalanan (Street Thugs Ops) conducted in Penang southwest district early this morning.

According to a statement from the southwest district police headquarters, all the motorcycles were seized under Section 64(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987 in an integrated operation from 11.30pm last night until 4am today.

"During the operation, the police also issued 54 summonses for various traffic offences including not having driver's license, not having road tax, no side mirrors and excessive modifications," according to the statement.

Besides curbing street thugs involving mat rempit gangs, the operation also aimed at ensuring that motorcyclists comply with existing traffic rules and their vehicles meet stipulated specifications.

“The operation is also focused at locations that are popular with Mat rempit carrying out dangerous stunts and illegal racing as well as detecting drunk drivers, preventing cases of vehicle theft, looting, burglary and other crimes," said the statement.

In another development, the Penang Road Transport Department (RTD) seized a total of 37 motorcycles and one private car driven by foreigners without ownership grants in the Foreign Motorcycle and Driver Ops (PeWA) in Juru and Bukit Mertajam yesterday.
