GEORGE TOWN: A 21-year-old man pleaded not guilty to a charge of drink-driving at a Magistrate’s Court here in what is the first such case in the state to be filed under the newly gazetted Road Transport (Amendment) Act.
Saw Yen Yew is the first person to be charged in Penang under the amended Act, which now carries a jail term of up to two years, a maximum fine of RM30,000 and revocation of driving licences for two years or more.
