[QUOTE="okow, post: 225964, member: 14"] Blackrobe, As long as you were driving you have control of the situation and not on one of them busses where the driver gets a fix before his duty, you'll be alright. 'Ops Bersih' has nabbed bus drivers who tested positive for drugs. Havent I read this before? We have drivers of public transportation who are 'high' How wonderful.! Below is an extract from our dailies: [B]By V.P.SUJATA and M. SIVANANTHA SHARMA[/B] PUTRAJAYA: It's been barely 24 hours since the start of [I]Ops Bersih[/I] and the authorities have already arrested a driver and his co-driver for testing positive for drugs while driving an express bus. [U]They also issued 117 summonses for various traffic offences, including one to a driver who was supposed to be under suspension because he had accumulated more than 15 Kejara demerit points. [/U] On top of that, a lorry driver was arrested for carrying 50kg of [I]ketum [/I]while three passengers in an express bus were detained for testing positive for drugs. Road Transport Department (JPJ) enforcement chief Salim Parlan said these were the first successes as more than 680 buses and lorries were inspected at 15 locations nationwide. [B][U]Among the summonses issued were for permit violation (49 offences), absence of co-driver (10), violation of driving licence (18), overloading (45) and technical offences such as having bald tyres and faulty brakes (32). [/U][/B] [COLOR=blue]Technical offences such as bald tyres and faulty brakes....no wonder they always cannot brake in time...go off a cliff and crash into a ravine la, crash into toll booth la, etc. and when interrogated driver will always say: brakes failed.[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
