The Pahang State Road Transport Department (JPJ) seized 6 luxury vehicles during an operation under Ops Luxury in Bentong on Sunday (18 January). While 5 of the luxury vehicles were using expired road tax, the 6th vehicle was seized for having a number plate belonging to a different vehicle.
JPJ Pahang took to their Facebook page to announce the seizures.
They wrote, “The Karak Enforcement Station implemented Ops Luxury, an enforcement operation that focuses on luxury vehicles using expired road tax. Operation results showed that 6 luxury cars were seized. The vehicles were seized under Section 64(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987 for further action.”
“A vehicle was also detected to have been displaying a registration number that does not belong to the vehicle, which is a serious offence under Section 108(3)(f) of the Road Transport Act 1987.”
Don’t use roads without road tax
They went on to remind the public that vehicles are required to have a valid road tax when being used on Malaysian roads.
“JPJ Pahang reminds that every vehicle owner is obliged to ensure that their vehicles comply with road laws by having road tax and insurance that are still in force before using it on the road,” they added.
