<a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2025/12/jpj-summons-discount-ending-49-million-remain-unpaid" target="_blank" style="">The much-talked-about traffic summons discount of up to 70% officially ended yesterday</a>, and it seems plenty of drivers missed the chance to settle their fines. 
According to JPJ, nearly 4.9 million summonses worth RM1.42 billion remain unpaid, despite the massive incentive offered from Nov 1 to Dec 30, 2025. <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2025/12/can-instalment-based-payment-scheme-help-solve-unpaid-summonses" target="_blank" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; white-space-collapse: preserve;">The discount had been introduced as a final push before the new unified traffic summons system rolls out in Jan 2026.</a> <img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/21030/16625778/607585578_1305130524993642_4805648310595334303_n-(1).jpg" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="16625778" alt="607585578_1305130524993642_4805648310595334303_n-(1).jpg"> 

During the campaign, JPJ collected RM93.51 million, clearing over 700,000 summonses, with the Automated Awareness Safety System (AwAS) offences accounting for more than half of the payments. But with the clock now stopped, those who missed the deadline are facing a tough new reality.From Jan next year, a tiered payment system comes into play. Pay within 15 days and you still get 50% off, 16-30 days gives 33%, after 31 days it’s full price, and after 61 days, you’ll be blacklisted and facing court actions.

JPJ will block your NRIC and vehicle from renewing road tax or driving license, and driving without either could mean impoundment or immediate legal trouble.
For persistent offenders, the new system also means mandatory court appearances, and ignoring a court date could lead to a warrant of arrest. The revamped KEJARA demerit system will now add points automatically after a summons expires, which could lead to warnings, license suspension, or even revocation for repeat offenders.

Checking Bukit Aman’s Traffic Investigation and Enforcement Department Facebook page, it’s clear many people are frustrated. A lot appealed for an extension, saying they thought the deadline was today, Dec 31, 2025. 
With so many summonses still outstanding, there’s a chance authorities might extend the discount for another month, but for now, we’ll have to wait and see. What do you think? Should they give people extra time?

Testing, he said, is still ongoing and remains a critical phase of the project.A major area of attention is the system software, which is being upgraded to the latest baseline to ensure it can cope with both existing faults and any new issues that may emerge during testing.Mohd Ariffin added that failure-free run (FFR) testing is currently being carried out on all trains assigned to the Shah Alam Line. A total of 22 trains must undergo the process, with each test monitored by the Land Public Transport Agency (APAD) as part of standard regulatory requirements. <img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/21026/16624862/481670118_633007029374782_6626559310987309250_n.jpg" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="16624862" alt="481670118_633007029374782_6626559310987309250_n.jpg"> Even trains that have already clocked the required mileage are not exempt, as they still need to be reassessed to ensure every technical and safety criterion is fully satisfied.According to him, the line cannot open to passengers until all trains pass FFR testing and the entire system, including infrastructure and signalling, is confirmed to be fully complete and stable.Testing is conducted around the clock, including overnight sessions, with specialists from original equipment manufacturers involved to address specific technical challenges. These include signalling systems supplied from Germany and rolling stock sourced from China.He noted that uncovering new issues during dry runs is not unusual, and any problems identified will be rectified before further testing continues to ensure long-term stability. <img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/21026/16624863/PANEL-A-Quick-Facts-2.png" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="16624863" alt="PANEL-A-Quick-Facts-2.png"> As for the start of public operations, Mohd Ariffin said an official projection is expected to be announced by senior management around January next year, once testing reaches a more conclusive stage.Earlier reports by Prasarana Malaysia Bhd revealed that the 33 technical issues, largely linked to software errors and system disruptions, were identified during two and a half months of testing and were a <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2025/12/lrt3-wont-launch-this-year-as-glitches-persist-no-new-date-set" target="_blank">key reason behind delays to the line’s launch</a>.Among the problems detected were trains failing to stop precisely at platforms, issues with door operations, incorrect speed settings, failures in automatic train movement, and unintended train movement when the system should have remained static.

All 33 technical problems identified on the Shah Alam Line have proposed fixes, but full testing is still underway.

Customs inspections of passengers and goods will continue under strengthened operational coordination and agreed procedures.It added that the move is expected to enhance passenger comfort, speed up boarding and ensure KLIA Terminal 1 operates in a more efficient, orderly and safe manner, in line with international airport practices.Authorities also warned that travellers attempting to take prohibited or undeclared items out of the country will continue to face firm enforcement action.Source: <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.thestar.com.my/news/nation/2025/12/30/streamlined-customs-checks-for-departing-travellers-at-klia-t1-starting-jan-1" target="_blank">The Star</a>

It marks a decisive shift in the global automotive landscape, according to <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://cn.nikkei.com/china/ccompany/60887-2025-12-30-09-04-44.html" target="_blank">Nikkei China</a>.The findings are based on company disclosures from Jan to Nov 2025 and data from S&amp;P Global Mobility, compiled by Nikkei China. The figures cover both passenger and commercial vehicles sold domestically and overseas.China’s global vehicle sales are expected to rise 17% year-on-year to about 27 million units. After becoming the <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2023/08/china-accounted-for-31-of-global-car-sales-in-1h-2023-with-61-of-the-worlds-evs-were-sold" target="_blank">world’s largest car exporter in 2023</a>, the country is now on track to lead overall sales as well. <img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/21015/16619977/conversions/China-Japan-Auto-SDales-2025-(2)-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="16619977" alt="China-Japan-Auto-SDales-2025-(2).png"> That momentum is being driven by electrification. EVs and plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) now account for about 70% of automakers’ sales in China, supported by strong policy backing. Nearly six in 10 passenger cars sold are new energy vehicles.Japanese automakers, meanwhile, are expected to post flat sales of around 25 million units, pushing them into second place. At their peak in 2018, Japanese brands sold close to 30 million vehicles globally.The speed of the shift is striking. Just three years ago, Japanese automakers were ahead by roughly eight million vehicles. That gap has now disappeared, reflecting China’s rapid expansion and growing pressure within its domestic market. <img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/21015/16619981/conversions/China-Japan-Auto-SDales-2025-(3)-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="16619981" alt="China-Japan-Auto-SDales-2025-(3).jpg"> However, this has led to signs of oversupply becoming more evident, with major players such as <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2024/03/2023my-byd-atto-3-gets-rm20000-discount-starts-from-rm129800-now" target="_blank">BYD cutting prices to stay competitive</a>.The fiercest competition is in the RMB100,000 to RMB150,000 (RM58,000 to RM87,000) segment, which now accounts for nearly a quarter of new energy passenger vehicle sales, with margins under increasing pressure.The solution, export as a release valve. Chinese automakers are increasingly shipping surplus vehicles overseas, a trend that some markets have criticised as “deflationary exports”.ASEAN has emerged as a key destination. Chinese car sales in the region surged 49% to about 500,000 units, directly challenging the long-standing dominance of Japanese brands. <img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/21015/16619983/conversions/MAA-Oct-2025-Caricarz-(2)-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="16619983" alt="MAA-Oct-2025-Caricarz-(2).jpg"> Thailand illustrates how <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2023/05/chinas-gwm-plans-ev-battery-assembly-research-in-thailand" target="_blank">quickly the balance is shifting</a>. As of Nov 2025, Japanese cars accounted for 69% of new vehicle sales, down from around 90% five years ago.Here at home, Malaysia is feeling similar pressure too. As EV adoption picks up, Chinese brands are <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2025/08/china-goes-global-as-geely-chery-and-byd-plant-roots-in-malaysia" target="_blank">gaining attention with aggressive pricing and rapid product cycles</a>, forcing incumbents to rethink cost structures and feature offerings.Europe remains another major battleground. Chinese car sales there are projected to grow 7% to roughly 2.3 million units, even as trade barriers rise. <img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/21015/16619984/conversions/Jaecoo-J7-CKD-CheryMalaysia-ShahAlamPlant-7-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="16619984" alt="Jaecoo-J7-CKD-CheryMalaysia-ShahAlamPlant-7.jpg"> While the European Union has imposed tariffs on Chinese EVs, <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2025/12/byd-dolphin-gains-new-phev-version-in-europe-debuts-in-2026" target="_blank">exports of PHEVs</a>, which face fewer restrictions, are increasing rapidly and reshaping the region's export strategies.Growth is also accelerating across emerging markets. Sales in Africa are expected to climb 32% to 230,000 units, while Central and South America are projected to rise 33% to about 540,000 units.However, as Chinese automakers scale globally, resistance is building. The US and Canada have imposed <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2025/05/us-china-agree-to-reduce-tariff-rates-for-90-days" target="_blank">tariffs exceeding 100% on Chinese EVs</a>, while the EU has introduced duties of up to 45.3%, underscoring the growing pushback as global competition intensifies.

He further added that such a method can convert an unaffordable large sum or amount into a manageable and consistent outlay too.“This approach says: we understand your financial constraints and will help you pay, but the commitment remains non-negotiable,” continued Dr Law further. He also noted that such a system must be paired with firm enforcement, which may include automatic penalties such as road tax or licence renewal freeze for defaulters.With unpaid summonses and fines, Dr Law further argues that the issue lies in enforcement. “If actual punishment is absent, no rational person, regardless of income level, would feel compelled to pay. It becomes a form of lottery, where only the unluckiest end up paying,” said Dr Law. <h6><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/21012/16619489/conversions/571206228_1452121540254301_3864489242765190625_n-full_normal.jpg" data-media-id="16619489" alt="571206228_1452121540254301_3864489242765190625_n.jpg" style="font-size: 0.8125rem; background-color: transparent; width: 100%;"></div><div style="text-align: center;">Govt enforcement agencies like JPJ reportedly have up to RM1.4 billion in unpaid and outstanding summonses and fines. Could instalment-based payments reduce this effectively?</div></h6> Lastly, Dr Law also added that inconsistent enforcement further contributes to creating a culture and mindset where summonses and fines are seen as “optional”. Given that the Road Transport Department (JPJ) reportedly has up to RM1.4 billion in unpaid summonses and fines, this perhaps isn’t the worse suggestion yet.Adding to this suggestion’s viability further is the fact that JPJ only <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.nst.com.my/news/nation/2025/12/1345668/rtd-collects-rm935mil-discounted-summonses-rm14bil-still-unpaid" target="_blank">reportedly</a>&nbsp;collected just RM93.51 million in outstanding summonses and fines through their recent collection drive. Despite the department offering offending motorists a 50% discount through said drive, the amount collected is clearly meagre versus the total amount noted prior.Despite the sound and valid arguments, Carz.com.my also recognises some concerns such as scheme may raise, notably on questions at how the department plans on setting eligible conditions in allowing offending motorists such a payment scheme.What say you folks?

<a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2025/12/malaysiasingapore-ink-additional-agreement-for-rts-link" target="_blank" style="">The Johor-Singapore RTS Link </a>recorded a major milestone on Dec 26 when its first train successfully completed a dynamic test run on the mainline.
According to RTS Operations (RTSO),<a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2025/11/rts-link-first-train-arrives-in-johor-testing-kicks-off-at-wadi-hana-depot" target="_blank" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; white-space-collapse: preserve;"> the test train started from the Wadi Hana Depot in Johor Bahru, passed Bukit Chagar Station, travelled along the elevated tracks</a>, reached the Malaysia-Singapore border, and then made its way back safely. "It was the first time a train covered the full route", the firm said.This wasn’t a high-speed run yet. It’s the beginning of a long testing phase. For now, trains will move at low speeds, with speeds slowly increased over time once safety checks are cleared. <span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;color:#000000;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;">

Engineers from both countries were on site to witness the run, including teams from RTS Operations, MRT Corp, Singapore’s LTA, and several project partners. "Before the train ever touched the mainline, the team had already completed key checks, such as making sure the tracks were clear, onboard systems were working properly, and power supply was ready," RTSO stated.

Once operational, <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2025/11/johor-regent-flags-traffic-concerns-ahead-of-rts-link-launch" target="_blank" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; white-space-collapse: preserve;">the RTS Link will connect Bukit Chagar in Johor Bahru directly to Woodlands North in Singapore.</a> The journey is expected to take around five minutes, which should help reduce daily congestion at the Causeway by moving more commuters from cars and buses to rail.The project, which was revived in 2020 after earlier delays, is currently expected to start by Dec 2026. Each train can carry over 600 passengers, with the system designed to handle up to 10,000 passengers per hour per direction during peak times.
