Settle fines on time or risk paying double, traffic offenders told

By SYLVIA LOOI

PAY up or have your fine doubled. This warning comes from Ipoh police who said traffic offenders who did not settle their summonses by the given deadline could be slapped with another summons for ignoring the first one.

Ipoh traffic chief Asst Supt Razali Bakar said police were empowered to issue the second summons under the Road Transport Act 1987.

He said the fine for the second summons was the same for the first one.

He said a transport company was recently issued with 20 second summonses after it failed to settle earlier ones for offences committed by its drivers.

ASP Razali also said the management of some transport companies had been hauled to court when their drivers who were issued with traffic summonses did not pay up.

On another matter, he said there were 405 arrest warrants waiting to be served on traffic offenders under the ongoing Ops Warta IV.

“There are 20 police officers in five teams working round the clock to serve the summonses,” he said.

ASP Razali also said police anti-cipated traffic in Ipoh to increase during the Deeparaya celebrations next month.

As such, he urged motorists to drive with care and be patient on the road during the period.

He said a total of 140 people died in road accidents in Ipoh from Jan 1 to Oct 17 this year compared to 155 people for the whole of last year.
