Malaysia Traffic Laws: Stop doing these to avoid yourself summon and fine at least RM1,000

Did you know? Using mobile phone while driving in Malaysia can result in a fine of not less than RM1,000. But do you think it's okay as long as you're not holding the phone in your hand? Well, then you're being naive. Today, let MyCarSearch tell you what other actions can lead to fines.


1. Put your phone on your lap

Don't think that just because you're not holding the phone in your hand means you're in the clear. If the police see your phone placed on your lap, they have the authority to issue you a fine as well.


2. Touch your phone even your phone on the phone holder

Even if your phone is already placed on a phone holder, you still cannot touch your phone while driving. If the police catch a glimpse of you touching your phone even for a moment, you can expect to receive a fine.

The current traffic laws are even stricter than before. Violating traffic rules not only results in fines but also involves going through the legal process, including potentially appearing in court. Indeed, it can be seen as a positive development. Stringent laws help ensure the safety of people on the roads. By enforcing stricter regulations and penalties, it serves as a deterrent for reckless driving and promotes responsible behavior behind the wheel. Ultimately, it contributes to a safer environment for everyone on the road.
