KUALA LUMPUR, June 10 — The government is in the process of drafting a new policy that will require heavy vehicles to be equipped with mandatory speed limiters, as part of broader efforts to improve road safety.
Transport Minister Anthony Loke said the policy is undergoing careful review to eliminate any loopholes or potential for misuse once it is put into effect.
“The government remains steadfast in enhancing road safety measures.
“We are fully committed to safeguarding road users, particularly from the dangers posed by reckless drivers and heavy vehicles that fail to comply with safety regulations,” he said in a Facebook post.
His statement follows a tragic crash yesterday that claimed the lives of 15 Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris (UPSI) students.
The incident occurred when a chartered bus travelling from Jertih, Terengganu to Tanjung Malim, Perak overturned after colliding with a multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) along the East-West Highway near Tasik Banding, Gerik.
The crash also left 33 people injured, including the bus driver and attendant, as well as the driver and three passengers of the Perodua Alza involved in the collision. — Bernama
