Selangor police recorded the settlement of 258,345 traffic summonses worth RM19.51 million during <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2025/12/traffic-summons-discount-ends-tougher-penalties-ahead-should-authorities-extend" target="_blank" style="">the two-month 70% summons discount programme, which ran from Nov 1 to Dec 30</a>.
Chief Datuk Shazeli Kahar said figures as of Dec 30 showed collections from 125,759 POL 257 summonses, <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2025/10/mydigital-id-now-mandatory-for-mybayar-pdrm-access" target="_blank" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; white-space-collapse: preserve;">amounting to RM11.49 million, and 132,586 POL 170A summonses worth RM8.02 million.</a>"Collections were led by Klang Selatan district police headquarters, which recorded RM2.7 million, followed by Petaling Jaya with RM2.1 million and Kajang with RM1.7 million," he said.

Shazeli stated the programme also highlighted a growing shift towards digital payment methods among the public. While cash payments still made up a slightly larger share at RM10.06 million, <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2025/08/pdrm-elderly-drivers-involved-in-nearly-7000-fatalities-from-20192024" target="_blank" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; white-space-collapse: preserve;">e-payments accounted for a significant RM9.45 million, reflecting increasing acceptance of cashless transactions.</a>“This balance shows that the public is increasingly inclined towards faster and more efficient payment methods, in line with the nation’s digital transformation efforts,” he added.

He also expressed appreciation to the public for their strong response following the conclusion of the discount programme, which was implemented across all traffic counters under the Selangor police contingent.“The initiative not only helped ease the financial burden on the public, but also encouraged greater awareness and compliance with road traffic laws, contributing to safer roads for everyone,” Shazeli concluded.

More than 258,000 traffic summonses were settled in Selangor during the two-month 70% discount programme, collecting RM19.5 million.

Selangor Police Collect RM19.5 Million During Summons Discount Period

<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.

<img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/21030/16625779/571206228_1452121540254301_3864489242765190625_n-(1).jpg" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="16625779" alt="571206228_1452121540254301_3864489242765190625_n-(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;">

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?

Traffic Summons Discount Ends, Tougher Penalties Ahead – Should Authorities Extend?

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.
