Getting tough on all drivers


PETALING JAYA: The move to amend laws for stiffer punishment on drink-driving will also include other forms of reckless driving, says the Transport Ministry.

“Therefore, be it driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol or geng basikal lajak (modified bicycles) or mat rempit, any form of dangerous driving will be covered in the proposed amendments,” said its minister Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong (pic).
