Earlier in May 2020, PDRM offered a 50% saman discount for traffic summonses. As for August 2020, JPJ & SPAD are offering a 70% discount for summons from 1st to 31st August 2020 in conjunction with Merdeka month. Although we made an announcement earlier, we decided to do an update in case any of our readers missed it.
As announced earlier, payment for the saman can be done through JPJ and UTC branches nationwide. If you do not have the time, you can actually make the payment online with the discount via JPJ mySIKAP Portal and JPJ Mobile or JPJ Kiosk. Remember the 70% Merdeka saman for August 2020 is only applicable from 1st to 31st August 2020. For those who are blacklisted, they are required to visit the state office or any JPJ branch for processing documentation before making the payment for the saman.
According to the latest reports, following the 70 % discount offer for compoundable summons; The Road Transport Department (RTD) has collected RM3.85 million in traffic summonses from Aug 1st to 15th 2020!
Statement by RTD
“Selangor RTD has so far recorded the highest collection with RM620,157 from 8,165 summonses settled.”
“As we all know, those with unpaid summonses will be blacklisted and this will cause problems when conducting transactions with the department such as renewing driving and motor vehicle licences, transferring ownership and others.”
“The discount, which ends on Aug 31; is being offered in conjunction with the National Month, and in line with the National Day 2020 theme “Malaysia Prihatin.” – BERNAMA
