Do not forget to renew your driving license
September 22nd, 2008If you’re caught at a Jabatan Pengangkutan Jalan (JPJ) roadblock and issued with a summons, you’d have to pay a compound of RM120.
According to the lady at JPJ Kota Kinabalu’s counter, this is fixed price - no discounts, unlike traffic police summons.
I’ve had my driver’s license for more than 10 years and have only ever been asked to show it at roadblocks about 3 times, the last time 10 years ago!
Add to that: in the last few years I’ve started asking my insurance agent to renew everthing for me - car insurance, road tax, license.
I guess you’d get a little complacent.
This year I forgot to ask him to renew my driving license - it expired back in May. That means I’ve been driving around with an expired license for more than 3 months. What could’ve happened if I was involved in an accident?
Note: if your comment does not appear immediately - it is being held in moderation. I will make it visible as soon as possible. Thanks for your comment!
We do tend to get complacent at times….speaking of which, I better check my license expiry….cool…2 more years..
I really should renew it for the max period (5 years?) instead of yearly
Did you get summoned?
That’s a cool 3 cartons worth of cheap china beers you know!

Yes, kena summon in front of JCK
IN THAT CASE YOU BETTER ‘PAU’ YOUR CAR PLAT NUMBER…. BELI DI STC, TOTO ATAU 88….

Anyway, wat news about ‘paper machet’?… ‘paper clips’?… ‘papper machai’?… or what ever the name is… I read about it in Daily Express recently…
1. I hope I never need to use that “connection”…
2. Papier Mache is another interesting adventure which I’m quite closely involved in (not as a bandmember but further back in the shadows haha) - as someone who digs music - shooting for stardom is something that’s in my “things to do before I die” list. I will do a post about it once I get a copy of the CD, scheduled to be this weekend…
