ALOR SETAR: Road users aged between 15 and 35, especially motorcyclists, have been categorised as a high-risk group for accidents, according to Road Transport Department (JPJ) data.
JPJ senior enforcement director Datuk Lokman Jamaan said its records showed that road safety awareness among those in that age bracket was still low, adding they must be made aware of the risks through advocacy efforts.
He said road users in the 15-35 age group were found to have committed the most traffic offences including having no driver's licence, road tax or insurance for their vehicles. He said a total of 20,792 offences were detected and notices were issued under the Road Transport Act 1987, the Commercial Vehicle Licensing Board Act 1987, and the Land Public Transport Act 2010.
