KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 4 — Kuala Lumpur is expected to see an exodus of more than one million vehicles beginning tomorrow in view of the weekend and Chinese New Year holiday on Monday and Tuesday. 

Kuala Lumpur Police deputy chief Datuk Law Hong Soon said today about 300 traffic policemen would be stationed at 20 accident-prone locations for traffic control. 

“City folk are expected to leave from tomorrow to Sunday to return to their villages and hometowns. 

“We will help to control traffic along with several other agencies such as the Road Transport Department,” he told reporters after launching the ‘Op Selamat 8’ road safety campaign in conjunction with Chinese New Year, here. 

The accident-prone locations include Jalan Kuching, Jalan Loke Yew, Jalan Klang Lama, Jalan Duta, Jalan Sungai Besi and Jalan Tun Razak. 

Law said the focus of the campaign would be to ensure that road users adhered to traffic regulations. 

“The offences frequently committed are driving on the emergency lane and driving dangerously,” he said.

He advised the people to complete the ‘balik kampung’ form obtainable at the Royal Malaysia Police website and hand it to the nearest police station so that police can keep an eye on their houses during patrols while they were away on holiday.

At the event, 34 Honda CBR 250 motorcycles were handed over to the Tourist Police Motorcycle Patrol Unit. — Bernama
