KUALA LUMPUR: Around RM42mil in outstanding traffic summonses have been paid by offenders during a five-day discount period. Bukit Aman Traffic Investigation and Enforcement Department (JSPT) director Datuk Azisman Alias, in a press conference on Friday (Jan 24) at Bukit Aman, said that the 50% discount saw around 402,714 summonses being settled during the period. "On the first day, 77,252 summonses worth around RM8mil were settled via e-payments," he said. He also noted that the immense traffic from those taking advantage of the discount affected the system. "Only about 30-35% of all summonses are paid, so that means 65% are still left unsettled.
