Malaysia to Criminalize Top-Speed Testing on Public Roads Under Proposed Traffic Law Amendment

If it becomes a criminal offense, that's serious enough to leave a record — should carry real deterrent effect.

Passing its first reading means it'll still take time to become law, but I want to keep watching how the deliberations go.

What exactly counts as a "top speed test"? How's it different from just speeding?

This might be the same amendment as the illegal-racing penalty article I saw earlier — feels like a follow-up piece.

Even making it a criminal offense, how effective the actual enforcement is remains a separate question.

Criminalizing top-speed testing on public roads is a strict measure that should serve as a clear deterrent.
