JPJ: Inactive licence holders a risk on roads


PUTRAJAYA: Some 2.3 million holders of the Competent Driving Licence (CDL) are currently listed as inactive, either because their licences have expired or have not been renewed for more than three years, says the Road Transport Department (JPJ).

In a statement yesterday, its director-general Datuk Aedy Fadly Ramli reminded Malaysians that it is an offence for holders of inactive licences to drive, as this poses risks to all road users.

“If these licence holders still wish to drive, they must retake the Driver’s Education Curriculum Test, Parts 2 and 3 (KPP02 and KPP03) to obtain or reactivate their licences, as required under Act 333.”

He also urged CDL holders whose licences have been expired for less than three years to renew them via the MyJPJ app, the mySikap portal or any JPJ counter nationwide, to avoid having to resit the KPP02 and KPP03 tests.
