I hope to announce the 2nd link Carnival is over. This morning 3am I went into Malaysia via Tuas for a cruise around Gelang Patah and Nusajaya area after I saw the coast clear yesterday in my family car
My friend had 50+ items.. many pages.. He also blur but he remembered once he cross the custom his average speed is 200km/hour, so he wanted to pay up.
Eventually he saw something which made him stopped. An offence in LANGKAWI.
What happened if you had just bought a 2nd hand car and found that it had outstanding summons in Malaysia.
How do you defend your case here since it was committed by the previous owner ? Or do you just LL and pay up ?
Keep the purchase documents and ownership transfer doc with you in the car and explain that you had just bought the car, and show proof. also before you buy that car do check online for any traffic offences.
Nowadays the transfer of ownership of vehicles is strictly done electronically. The first owner need to scan his fingerprint to match the records at Road Transport Department before transfer can be effected. Therefore the chances of old fines being carried forward is nil.
Worse still, the system is linked to various department. When I renewed my passport, I told the officers at Immigration I changed address, all he did was to update and the next thing I had is an email from Road transport informing me they too had updated their records. So imagine you had a traffic offence, it will be linked to the Immigration. Both ways also kena.
I think barra10 was asking about singapore cars, not M'sian cars. There is always the sale booking form and several other contract documents (loan doc) etc and we can go online onemotoring and print the ownership page as well. I don't see it as a problem explaining to PDRM that I just bought the car and the offence date was clearly before i bought the car. It may cause a lot of inconvenience and maybe quite some time spent at the station, though.
anyway i think it's good to pay the fine. i'm someone who doesn't like having the thought of being blacklisted somehow. in singapore there is a demerit point for speeding and the fine is a lot more punitive. having said that, i often go around 120km/h and i wish either the land trasport guys raise the speed limit or else the enforcement depts give some leeway for speeds not in excess of 20km/h above the speed limit like in singapore. The 90 km/h limit all the way from sungai besi to kajang is kind of ridiculous, too slow. Many roads in KL have been upgraded to four lane highways (for eg lebuhraya mahameru) but i believe the speed limit is still the ancient 70km/h??
Regarding buying a 2nd hand car and having to pay for the summons, the Malaysian authorities have made it clear on paper that they ( the owners ) have to proof their ownership happens after the summons were issued. Then the authorities wont ask them to pay. So its wise to bring along a LTA or sales copy record when you drive into Malaysia. And this is where the loophole comes in
Many sinkies go over and drive like they own Malaysian roads.
wreckless speeding, aggressive road manners, blatant disrespect for rules by making illegal u turns
ect..and when get caught start to kowpeh kowbu. Most of these outstanding fines relate to speeding
so owners should have known that they had unpaid speeding fines.
I look at it as a discount..since the fines remain unpaid and interest free ..until caught..and
if you dont get caught its a super bonus
