This is in response to Pakatan Harapan's former transport minister Anthony Loke, who reportedly said that he felt "disgusted" that incumbent Transport Minister Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong had claimed credit for Pakatan's initiative to toughen penalties for driving under influence laws.

In June 2020, the Transport Minister said his ministry was finalising amendments to Sections 41 to 45 of the Road Transport Act 1987 (Act 333) and promised harsher punishment for those convicted of driving under the influence of alcohol and drugs.
