KUALA LUMPUR: The Transport Ministry (MOT) are looking into enforcing harsher penalties which includes a lifetime ban behind the wheel for reckless driving.

Transport Minister Anthony Loke Siew Fook said although the Road Transport Act 1987, has addressed the issue of reckless and dangerous driving that caused fatalities, he felt that current punishment is too light.

“I personally feel this particular penalty is too light. Lives lost cannot be replaced, and those who cause deaths through reckless driving should have their licenses permanently revoked and banned from driving ever again,” he said in a press conference in MOT earlier.

He was referring to Section 41(1) of the act which penalises reckless vehicle drivers who cause death with imprisonment of no less than two and not more than 10 years, and a fine of no less than RM5,000 and not more than RM20,000. Section 41(3) would see the offender stripped of his or her license for three years for the first time, and for 10 years if it occurs a second time.

However, Loke pointed out that any hopes of amending the laws are currently in ‘infant stages’ which still require more studies to be conducted prior to tabling it in the Dewan Rakyat.

“As well as this, we need to get input from other parties outside the ministry, including NGOs or road safety bodies.

“So for the time being, this is pretty much in its infant stages, and requires further development before we will consider bringing the amendment to Parliament for tabling,” he said.

Loke was commenting on the recent accident near the Menora Tunnel in Ipoh last Saturday, where a trailer lost control and resulted in the deaths of five people.
