His comments follow a crash involving a Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris (UPSI) <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2025/06/gerik-crash-psv-licence-suspended-rm17m-aid-raised" target="_blank">chartered bus that killed 15 students</a>, reigniting public concern over bus safety.Professor Dr Zaini Ahmad, Dean of the Mechanical Engineering Faculty at Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, pointed to several critical flaws in bus design and regulatory oversight. One major concern, he said, is the continued use of a four-seat row layout in many buses.“The four-seat row formation reduces the survivability space and lowers the chance of passengers surviving a crash compared to a three-seat layout, which is more commonly used in express buses,” he explained. <img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/18053/15518797/conversions/1732294052384-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="15518797" alt="1732294052384.jpg"> Dr Zaini also criticised the materials used in many bus seat frames, describing them as rigid and potentially harmful during collisions. He advocated for the use of more flexible materials capable of absorbing impact energy, which he believes could help reduce the severity of injuries.Beyond seat design, the professor highlighted a deeper structural issue, the lack of mandatory rollover crash testing. He noted that many buses are approved for use based on certified joint structure designs, without undergoing full-scale rollover tests.“Some bus manufacturers rely only on the approval of joint structure designs to meet regulatory requirements, without having to conduct actual rollover tests, which are more costly,” he said. <img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/18053/15518798/conversions/157b214b-b837-4d69-bdb6-922f76d435a9_1920x1080-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="15518798" alt="157b214b-b837-4d69-bdb6-922f76d435a9_1920x1080.jpg"> While the Economic Commission for Europe Regulation 66 (ECE-R66) outlines standards for structural integrity during rollovers, Malaysia does not currently require buses to pass such tests if their joints have already been certified. Dr Zaini believes this loophole undermines passenger safety.He further stressed that these shortcomings must be addressed through both regulatory reform and better enforcement.Strengthening public transport safety, he said, must involve mandatory rollover testing, safer seat designs, <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2025/02/mot-set-to-work-with-kpdn-to-ban-dummy-seatbelt-buckles" target="_blank">greater seatbelt use</a>, and stronger enforcement paired with road safety education to help save lives Source: <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.nst.com.my/news/nation/2025/06/1232064/flawed-bus-seat-design-puts-passengers-risk-expert-warns" target="_blank">New Straits Times</a>

Bus rollover tests must be enforced, says expert, to ensure structural integrity and save lives.

Prasarana is set to launch a <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2025/05/prasarana-launches-new-myrapid-pulse-app" target="_blank" style="">new feature in its PULSE app that will allow users to purchase and activate the My50 monthly travel pass</a> directly from their phones. <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;"> <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;"> <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;">Announced via Rapid KL’s Facebook page, the update promises a fast, user-friendly experience by eliminating the need to queue at LRT, MRT, or KTM station counters. <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;"> <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;"> <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;">As the My50 pass is linked to MyKad and relies on NFC technology, renewals will likely require an NFC-enabled smartphone, similar to topping up a Touch 'n Go card via the TNG eWallet app.

Prasarana is set to launch My50 pass purchase and activation via PULSE app soon.

With the establishment of Hyundai Motor Malaysia, we are bringing the strength and agility of a global brand closer to home.“This isn’t just a new chapter—it’s a long-term commitment to Malaysia as a strategic hub in ASEAN,” Lee added.Meanwhile, HMY managing director Jahabarnisa Haja Mohideen said, “Malaysia is a market full of untapped potential—it boasts the highest passenger vehicle demand in ASEAN at 35%, with a steady GDP growth of 4.3% signaling strong consumer confidence and rising spending power.”

This marks a 12.4% increase from the 60,527 units sold in April 2025, reversing the previous <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2025/05/maa-april-2025-auto-sales-drops-168" target="_blank">month’s holiday-induced slowdown</a>.MAA attributed the improved performance to several factors, including a higher number of working days in May compared to April, sustained promotional campaigns, and the continued delivery of vehicles from orders made during the first quarter of the year. <img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/18046/15517043/conversions/Screenshot-2025-06-18-165651-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="15517043" alt="Screenshot-2025-06-18-165651.jpg"> Despite the month-on-month recovery, May 2025 sales reflected a 3% decline compared to the 70,254 units sold in the same month last year. Passenger vehicle (PV) sales reached 62,757 units, down 3% year-on-year (YoY), while commercial vehicle (CV) sales fell by 11% to 5,250 units.On a year-to-date (YTD) basis, the total number of vehicles sold as of May 2025 stood at 316,737 units, a 5% decline from the 333,309 units recorded in the same period in 2024.
