No Fancy License Plates or Heavy Tints |
KUALA LUMPUR: Police have warned vehicle owners using tinted windows, registration plates which do not meet specifications and beacon lights to change or take them off before a major operation starts on June 16.
Bukit Aman Traffic Police chief SAC Mohd Fuad Abd Latiff said the operation was intended to reduce risks of crimes.
"This is because it is difficult for victims to identify suspects in the event of crimes due to the use of tinted windows and registration numbers which do not meet specifications," he told reporters here, today.
The use of beacon lights must be approved by the Road Transport Department director-general under Rule 138 (1) of the Road Traffic Rules and illegal users were given until June 1 to take them off off before action was taken.
"We give vehicle owners with dark tinted windows and registration plates not following specifications until May 15.
"After the date, a RM300 compound will be imposed," said Mohd Fuad. – Bernama
Tinted windows allowed for two reasons only — JPJ
Posted on May 18, 2014, Sunday
KUCHING: There are only two valid reasons for drivers to have tinted windows on their vehicles, said Road Transport Department (JPJ) deputy director-general Dato Ariffin Che Mat.
“They are health and security. The department allows tint on car windows if the person who owns the vehicle has certain health conditions that rendered them sensitive to the sun or if the person needs security protection. Most VIPs have the permit to use tinted windows for the reason of security.
“This reason has to be certified by a government specialist doctor or the police respectively.
“Application for the use of tinted windows have to be sent to JPJ headquarters with the official certification letter from the doctor or the police,” he told a press conference after closing a JPJ community programme in Kampung Muara Tebas yesterday.
He was asked to brief on the upcoming ‘Ops Cermin Gelap’, which is a nationwide operation cracking down on tinted vehicle windows.
The operation will begin on June 16. It will target vehicles with heavily-tinted windows. Permissible tint levels states a minimum of 70 per cent visible light transmission levels for the front windscreen and 50 per cent for the other windows.
Ariffin said the reason for the operation is to reduce the risk of crime, especially when the police are in search of criminal suspects.
“We are afraid of misuse by criminals, which is why we are limiting the use of tinted windows. Tinted windows make it hard for the authorities to identify criminal suspects,” he pointed out.
He reminded that all vehicles that come directly from manufacturers do not come with tinted windows, despite popular belief.
“Cars direct from the factory must have clear glass, that is an industry requirement. Any form of tint is most likely value-added by the dealers,” he said, adding that JPJ has no plans to change the current tint levels.

616全国大检举 |
(吉隆坡15日讯)警方给予宽限期,让车主在下个月前,拆除不符规格的警示灯丶墨镜及车牌,否则将被对付,罚款最高300令吉!
警方与陆路交通局携手合作,从下个月开始在全国各地,展开大型取缔行动。所有未经允许而擅自安装警示灯(Beacon Light)的拆卸期限是在6月1日前,而不符规格的墨镜及车牌的更换期限则是在6月15日前。
全国交警主任弗亚高级助理总监指出,警方将会从6月2日开始,取缔非法安装警示灯的车辆,并罚款150令吉;同时,也会于6月16日开始,取缔不符规格的墨镜及车牌,违规车主将一律被罚款300令吉。
宽限一个月拆下
他警告,警方给予一个月的宽限期,让车主自行更换车牌或墨镜。他相信,这一个月的时间,已足够让车主处理上述事项。
根据陆路交通局的指示,无论是安装车牌或墨镜,都必须遵守一定的标准,而不是按照车主的喜好而决定墨镜的透光度。
弗亚举例,轿车车牌必须是黑底白字,无论是字母高度或宽度,都有一定标准,且数字之间必须间隔10毫米。
「而所有车辆的挡风镜透光度必须至少70%,两旁车窗及车后镜的透光度,则必须至少50%;如果车镜太黑,将有利于罪犯干案。」
他说,此举也是为了协助其他执法单位,如肃毒组及刑事调查组警方丶移民局丶志愿警卫团及关税局等,执行任务。
此外,根据陆路交通局的指示,只有警方丶消拯局丶救护车及陆路交通局的车辆可以安装警示灯,私人轿车一律不被允许安装。
若商用车辆欲安装警示灯,则必须先向陆路交通局作出申请,并说明安装原因。而且,只有公司业者或秘书的车子,才可以做出相关申请。
