KOTA BARU: The Transport Ministry will review traffic summons discounts offered to foreign vehicles, including those from Thailand, to ensure that the enforcement approach implemented remains effective. He said the entry of foreign vehicles is common in states along the Malaysia-Thailand border, and at present, foreign vehicle drivers who commit offences and settle their summonses within the stipulated timeframe are eligible for discounts of up to 50 per cent. "However, if this approach is found to be not as effective as expected, the ministry will review the mechanism specifically for foreign vehicles. He said the installation is currently being implemented on a voluntary basis by bus operators before it is made mandatory in the near future. "We want to ensure that bus drivers are continuously monitored to enhance operational safety and reduce the risk of accidents involving express buses,” he said.
