KUALA LUMPUR: Despite strict laws mandating motor insurance for all vehicles that ply the roads, tens of thousands of them are believed to be operating without it, according to a study by the Vehicle Theft and Accident Reduction Council of Malaysia (VTAREC)
VTAREC coordinator Mas Tina Abdul Hamid said the findings were based on a study of 740,000 cases of road accidents in 2023, which revealed that insurance claims for damages were only filed for 40% of the cases.
