In England, Wales and Scotland, according to the Road Traffic Act 1988, a person who drives a mechanically propelled vehicle dangerously on the road or place is guilty of an offence. Malaysia, likewise follow the same rules. As such, the police can therefore summon you for the way you have driven.

Looks you have got a summons that’s compoundable. See the authorities that issued the above summons and pay up quickly.

Hi, I would to get your advice.
Yesterday I caught in an car accident and I’m in the wrong for banging onto the other car. I made a police report and the police issued me a paper asking me to appear in court on a certain date and some more one part wrote whether it is compoundable offense or not and with a date. So what does this mean and what should I do?
P/S:This is my first time getting into an accident and I’m a university student. Thank you in advance.

Thank you for your reply. Since it shall be a court case, will the outcome be a fine or imprisonment?

Not possessing a driving license is a violation of Section 26 (2). It is a court case offense.

May i seek advice on a driving offence?
My friend was driving in JB and summoned a court of order for non-possession of his driving licence on the day of offence.

What are the possible verdict from the judge/magistrate? Can he not attend the court but pay his fines before the court hearing date?

Appreciate your geneuine advice and comments.
