The Road Transport Department (RTD) has issued 91 notices to vehicle owners for questioning after they were found to have used the emergency lane at KM228 of the PLUS Highway in Malacca and obstructed an ambulance last Sunday.
RTD deputy director-general (Planning and Operations) Datuk Yusoff Ayob said the notices were issued by Malacca RTD after completing an investigation on a video recording by a member of the public on the incident.
"All owners of the vehicles involved are given 14 days to come to the RTD office to identify the driver under Section 114 of the Road Transport Act 1987," he told Bernama after presenting certificates to participants of the road safety basic course here today.
"If they are not involved in the act, they are required to make a police report to be investigated," he said adding that there was a possibility the registration number could be false.
He said those involved could be imposed with a compound of RM300 or prosecuted in court and fined RM2,000 upon conviction.
A total of 48 participants, comprising Skuad Muda volunteers with interest in motoring related activities took part in the two-day course at the Federal Territories RTD.
Also present were Federal Territories RTD director Datuk Md Ziki A. Rahman, Kuala Lumpur RTD Enforcement Division chief Datuk Norhadzli Mohd Azhar and Peninsular Malaysia Road Transport Officers Union president Hamzah Masri.
Yusoff added that a total of 480,000 road accident cases were reported nationwide last year, mostly due to road users' bad attitude such as speeding and reckless driving.
