Motorcyclists are the most at-risk group on Malaysian roads, making up a shocking 70% of the roughly 6,000 yearly road accident deaths. However, interestingly, the Vehicle Theft and Accident Reduction Council (VTAREC) reports that motorcycle riders are only at fault for about 13% of these accidents.<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;"> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2025/05/myvi-yamaha-135lc-most-involved-in-accidents-toyota-hilux-most-stolen" target="_blank" style="">VTAREC coordinator Mas Tina Abdul Hamid</a> says that the council studies indicate cars are involved in most road incidents, at 67%, with commercial vehicles following at 20%.  She notes that this data suggests car drivers, surprisingly, require more education on road safety and defensive driving.<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;"> <img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/17365/15203572/160824_motorcycleteens_police-(1)-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="15203572" alt="160824_motorcycleteens_police-(1).jpg"><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;">

The findings also reveal a serious issue with traffic accidents and fatalities, with someone dying in a crash every 80 minutes on average, primarily due to human error, which accounts for 80% of crash factors.<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;">

In April 2925 alone, 863 units were sold, bringing the year-to-date (YTD) total to 2,716 units. This makes it the best-selling EV in Malaysia, and puts Proton e.MAS in second place for overall EV sales, even with only one model offering.The e.MAS 7’s popularity means EVs now make up 6% of Proton’s total sales. Meanwhile, Proton's traditional models also continued to perform well. The Proton X50 sold 2,389 units in April, its best monthly figure for the year. Its YTD total now stands at 7,506 units, making it the top-selling B-segment SUV. <img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/17356/15201181/conversions/web_TA_CariCarz_Review_Proton-S70-Flagship-X_-9-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 50%;" data-media-id="15201181" alt="web_TA_CariCarz_Review_Proton-S70-Flagship-X_-9.jpg"><img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/17356/15201180/conversions/Caricarz-MBA-Proton-X50-RC-Ext-2-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 50%;" data-media-id="15201180" alt="Caricarz-MBA-Proton-X50-RC-Ext-2.jpg"> The X90 led the D-segment SUV category with 194 units sold in April, pushing its total to 873 units this year.
