Dear Readers,
The Road Transport Department (RTD / JPJ) recently enforced the rear seat belt rule. The power to impose this rule emanates from the Road Transport Act, particularly the Subordinate Legislation of the Motor Vehicles (Safety Seat Belt) Rules 1977.
Basically the rules state:-
1. All Rear Seat Passengers have to buckle up. An exception is where there are 4 passengers, where the 4th Passenger need not buckle up;
2. If a passenger is caught in the act, and the passenger is 17 years old or above that age, that passenger bears the Fine.
3. If the passenger is below 17 years old, the Driver is to pay the fine.
We found this Q & A in Motor Trader's website, which we are of the view to be fairly useful. However, if you have any further enquiries, you can always contact us.
Thank you.
Regards,
Richard Wee
