KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian Institute of Road Safety Research (Miros) is studying the effectiveness of measures to reduce instances of driving under the influence of intoxicating substances following legislative amendments to increase the penalties for such offences, says Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong.
"The Transport Ministry has requested Miros to conduct a study on the effectiveness on all intervention measures carried out by the ministry and all stakeholders to address the issue of driving under influence as the (amended) laws have been enforced for almost one year now," he said.
