The Road Transport Department (JPJ) has identified <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2025/08/jpj-rm3-million-rolls-royce-among-53-vehicles-seized" target="_blank" style="">more than 1,000 luxury vehicles including Ferraris and Lamborghinis that have gone without valid road tax and insurance for an extended period.</a><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;">These high-end cars, often owned by celebrities and prominent business figures, are typically used only on weekends or for special occasions. But that, according to JPJ senior enforcement director Muhammad Kifli Ma Hassan, does not exempt them from the law.<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;">“It does not matter how rarely the car is used. If it’s on the road, it must be properly taxed and insured,” he said.

As part of its ongoing enforcement drive under Op Luxury, the department is closely monitoring traffic using both marked and unmarked vehicles.<a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2025/06/ops-luxury-jpj-seizes-101-luxury-vehicles" target="_blank" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; white-space-collapse: preserve;"> Officers will not hesitate to seize any vehicle caught driving illegally.</a><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;">Between July 30 and August 1, a total of 53 luxury cars were impounded.

“That assumption is false and against the law. We know who the owners are. If the cars appear on public roads, we will act immediately,” he added. <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;">JPJ is also calling on the public to report similar violations. Complaints can be submitted through the MyJPJ app or by emailing the department directly (aduantrafik@jpj.gov.my) with complete details.

JPJ flags over 1,000 luxury cars, including Ferraris and Lambos, for missing road tax and insurance.

This timeline aligns with the statement made by <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2025/07/pr-spouses-sidelined-from-ron95-fuel-subsidy" target="_blank">Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim</a> on July 23.In a written reply to Parliament, the MoF said the government is still developing and testing the subsidy mechanism to ensure it can be rolled out smoothly.This includes refining and cross-checking data from multiple agencies, such as the National Registration Department, Road Transport Department (JPJ), and the Department of Statistics Malaysia (DoSM). <img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/18819/15809272/conversions/c4c6cfab-7443-4058-8bf7-5fb6fdb6183f-full_normal-full_normal-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="15809272" alt="c4c6cfab-7443-4058-8bf7-5fb6fdb6183f-full_normal-full_normal.jpg"> The goal is to create a more accurate and comprehensive approach to fuel subsidies, ensuring that RON95 benefits only go to eligible Malaysians.The MoF said that once implemented, Malaysians who qualify will be able to buy RON95 at RM1.99 per litre using MyKad as verification at petrol stations.Non-citizens and those who do not qualify will pay the unsubsidised market price, which is expected to be around RM2.50 per litre. <img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/18819/15809273/conversions/Caricarz-RON95-B10Diesel-FuelPump-(1)-full.jpg" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="15809273" alt="Caricarz-RON95-B10Diesel-FuelPump-(1).jpg"> Even at that unsubsidised rate, RON95 in Malaysia remains far cheaper than in neighbouring countries such as <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2025/08/kpdn-probes-sg-driver-sighted-pumping-ron95-in-johor" target="_blank">Singapore, where prices can reach RM9.50 per litre</a>.The update was in response to a question in Parliament by Hulu Langat MP Mohd Sany Hamzan, who had asked for progress updates on the retargeting system, including both front-end and back-end phases announced earlier by the Ministry of Economy involving the <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2025/08/amir-hamzah-padu-at-the-core-of-ron95-subsidy-implementation" target="_blank">Central Database Hub (PADU) database</a>.<div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><div style="text-align: justify;">Source: <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.malaymail.com/news/malaysia/2025/08/05/mykad-or-full-price-targeted-ron95-subsidy-plans-to-be-unveiled-by-end-sept-says-mof/186463#google_vignette" target="_blank">MalayMail</a></div>

Shuttle buses were sent in to keep things moving, and by 11:01am, the Aerotrain was back on track.<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;">But for many, the disruption felt like deja vu.“Broken again?” user @afiqmukhtar posted at 10:52am, tagging Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim and Transport Minister Loke Siew Fook. “Millions spent on upgrades and <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2025/07/klia-aerotrain-stalls-after-downpour-causes-drainage-pump-malfunction" target="_blank" style="">it still can’t handle full passenger loads.”</a>

This isn’t the first time the upgraded RM456 million train system has come under fire. Since resuming operations after a 28-month suspension, it has faced multiple interruptions, drawing backlash from commuters and public figures alike.<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;">MCA Youth secretary-general Saw Yee Fung didn’t mince words, urging the transport ministry to form a dedicated task force to uncover what’s really going on. <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;">“It’s disappointing and unacceptable,” she said, pointing to repeated issues in just one month.<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;">Earlier reports highlighted similar problems, including jammed doors to unexpected shutdowns. On July 4, a blogger noted the trains weren’t running again, with passengers rerouted via buses. <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;">MAHB later explained that a faulty drainage pump during heavy rain had caused flooding, triggering the train’s safety shutdown system.

Transport Minister Loke responded, clarifying that the rain-related glitch had nothing to do with the new train itself. <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;">“It was a failure in the airport’s older infrastructure. Once water levels rose beyond the safety limit, the system did exactly what it was designed to do, which is stop,” he said.Still, for passengers, the growing list of excuses is wearing thin. With trust in the system running low, many are asking the same question. Was the Aerotrain truly ready to return?

KLIA’s Aerotrain stalled for 15 minutes due to a door glitch, prompting an apology and public frustration.
