Yesterday Ops Sikap XIII has been launched by the IGP at Dataran Bentong. What is in everyones hope is the statistics drop. However with the launch the "Medal Tally" is also launched. Whether we like or not, everyday people will be curious to see whether the "medal tally" increases.
According to Tan Sri Musa, the operation will focus on defaulters under the Akta Pengangkutan Jalan (APJ) 1987 especially on serious offence that can lead to road accidents.
Under the act maximum fine of RM 300 will be imposed on these offence;
- speeding
- reckless and dangerous driving
- driving under the influence of alcohol and drugs
- overtaking at double lines
- beating traffic lights
- beating the queue
- and using emergency lanes.
Slow driving on the right lane causing traffic snarl is also an offence.
5,190 officers including 4,608 traffic police are involved. Personnels from other departments such as General Forces and FRU are also deployed.
