Malaysian police have recorded 120 fatal road crashes involving drivers under the influence of alcohol or drugs from 2023 until June this year, reported New Straits Times.
Of these, 94 cases involved drug abuse, while the remaining 26 cases involved alcohol use, said JSPT director Datuk Seri Muhammed Hasbullah Ali.
“Based on our statistics, we found that many accidents were caused by drink-drivers, so we have intensified enforcement operations, including roadblocks. Every week, I issue instructions to all TEID officers and personnel to continuously carry out Op Mabuk (against drink-drivers), with no contingent exempted,” Hasbullah said.
Records kept by the JSPT show that 1,634 operations were conducted under Op Mabuk in the first six months of this year, resulting in 949 arrests, and the figure showed an increase compared with the same period last year, which saw 692 operations and 930 arrests, he said.
“The five contingents with the highest number of arrests under Op Mabuk were Kuala Lumpur with 268 individuals, Johor (223), Selangor (182), Sabah (95) and Sarawak (62),” he continued.
The JSPT is collaborating with the Narcotics Crime Investigation Department (NCID) and the National Anti-Drug Agency (NADA) on the use of saliva test kits to detect drivers involved in drug abuse, the JSPT director said.

So,to deny bail for these moronic drivers,charge them under murder first.
Then,when the murder charge is untenable,change to lesser charges.
The purpose is to lock them up for as many years possible.
Once these morons are granted bail..can any one in this forum guarantee they wont commit the same crime twice?

DUI fatality is 78% from drug and 22% from alcohol
and how many thousands of cases were from reckless or aggresive driving ?
probably DUI is only 1% of the total cases

Isn’t this contrary to the statistics? I thought it’s mentioned drug is higher
its a very low requirement to join polis force, even form 5 SPM can already apply to join. so dont expect them to exhibit much intelligence.

This guy gagal matematik or what? Since when is 94 more than 26? Call it what it is. The mabuk problem is now more mabuk with drugs than alcohol. But they’ll still make it sound like alcohol is the bigger problem. Why? You know I know la.
