The Road Transport Department (JPJ) warned that they will take action against road users who were reported or detected recording TikTok videos while driving.
The department said this regarding the actions of an express bus driver who was spotted making live recordings through the TikTok application while driving. JPJ will take immediate action against the driver.
JPJ’s Senior Director of Enforcement, Datuk Lokman Jamaan, said his side will place undercover officers in every express bus to ensure that no driver commits the offence.
In addition, he said, the cooperation of the public in recording videos or photos of drivers who act in this way is also welcome.” They can send it to us along with the date and location of the trip to make it easier for us to take action.
“Previously, there have been cases like this but for Ops HRA this time, no complaints have been received so far.
“If they are found to have committed the offence, they can be taken action immediately. However, the journey can still continue,” he added.
During the operation, he also inspected the express bus using special equipment to ensure that the tire thickness was not bald, and that the traffic lights were in good condition.
