The police found that some individuals who drive supercars and ride high-capacity motorcycle often use Jalan Ulu Yam-Sungai Tua, Batang Kali as a place to test the potential of their vehicles.
The operation carried out by the Traffic Investigation and Enforcement Division (BSPT) of the Hulu Selangor District Police Headquarters (IPD) from 7 to 10 in the morning saw a total of 40 summons issued for various offences.
Hulu Selangor District Police Chief, Superintendent Ahmad Faizal Tahrim said the operation was held to curb and prevent traffic offenses in the area involved.
“Among the offenses committed are cutting on double lines, not obeying the speed limit, not having a driver’s license and using a mobile phone while driving.
“However, there was no seizure and no driver was arrested in this operation,” he said when contacted.
Ahmad Faizal said, monitoring found that Jalan Ulu Yam Bharu-Sungai Tua was the focus of a convoy of drivers and motorcyclists with some driving dangerously.
“So far, the police have not received any complaints of racing parties, but they will monitor from time to time.
“Drivers and motorcyclists are reminded to drive their vehicles as best as possible, obey traffic laws and not take themselves too seriously,” he said.
