[QUOTE="rpmnut, post: 487305, member: 20757"] I for one, think it's about time the JPJ started enforcing the law. Having fancy gadgets fitted from the factory is perfectly alright. Millions are spent every year by the manufacturers to ensure that these advanced features are safe for use while on the road. Safety features are built-in to ensure they do not distract the driver or other road users while the car is being operated. Certainly these rules and the enforcement of such rules are to protect other road users from the select few who haphazardly modify their cars to the point where they're barely safe for road use and/or make it dangerous for others to be on the road at the same time. Classic example - all those Jap mobiles retrofitted with blinding Xenon bulbs aimed sky high, blinding anyone in front of them. Or the joker in the Kancil on the road when I was driving back home earlier watching the Transporter on his sunvisor screen (it couldn't have been his passenger watching cos he was alone in the car)....these modifications are inherently unsafe. Even if drivers "claim" they don't watch the screens, all it takes is one explosive scene on the screen to distract them long enough for them to get into trouble on the road... [/QUOTE]
