Chan Kong Choy: we will improve system so that it is more efficient
Posted by omong on August 15, 2007
The Transport Ministry has admitted there are weaknesses in the demerit points penalty system that allows drivers to escape amassing “negative points” if they do not settle their summonses.
Minister Datuk Seri Chan Kong Choy said the demerit points system, or Kejara, was currently the weakest link in terms of enforcement.
“We are looking into it seriously and efforts will be made to improve the system so that it is more efficient,” he said yesterday, in reference to why the bus driver involved in the Taiping bus accident was still allowed on the road even though he had 13 outstanding summonses.

Hope the government will look into Dermits points
seriously.It will burden a lot rakyat,when Kejara
suspend our license.They should change it higher
compound.If you don;t pay renewal 100% blocked.
So RM 500 -RM800 or RM 1000-for simple offences.
