ALOR SETAR: Road users aged between 15 and 35, especially motorcyclists, have been categorised as a high-risk group for accidents, according to Road Transport Department (JPJ) data.

JPJ senior enforcement director Datuk Lokman Jamaan said its records showed that road safety awareness among those in that age bracket was still low, adding they must be made aware of the risks through advocacy efforts.
