Be careful folks, the traffic police will be knocking on your doors in a nationwide crackdown for traffic offenders who failed to pay their summons. The police call it Ops Warta VII. They do it every year so that the errant motorists will pay their summons. The police may even go to your office to arrest you.
Traffic summons especially those of speeding are very common for motorists. Not that I'm driving like Lewis Hamilton on the roads but still I have received many speeding tickets over the past few years. The highest record was two years ago when I got the summons worth a total of RM1500. Painful experience isn't it, but what to do, it is hard to keep a constant speed below 110 km/hour on the highway especially if you are rushing for meeting or sort.
But if the police can send so many traffic police to look out for the errant motorists, why not they spend more time to patrol crime prone areas in Penang, PJ, KL, JB so that criminal activities can be prevented. If you flip through newspapers everyday, all sort of crime will scare you to hell. Gang rape, mat rempit robbing people at the petrol station, break-ins, assassinations by hired killers, bank robbing, what else? Simple, the IGP will wash his hands by saying that they are under staff. Well, I suppose it is easier to go after the traffic offenders than nailing down the more sophisticated criminals that would exhaust their investigating skills.
