MBSJ imposing heavier penalty on serious parking violations in Subang Jaya surroundings from Aug 1


Mohd Zulkurnain added that the compound for heavy vehicles that park and obstruct parking spots meant for other motorists has been increased from RM80 to RM300, with no option for reduction.

MBSJ legal department director Anita Abd Jalil said the move was necessary to ensure motorists take the matter seriously. “Motorists who don’t comply with the order are causing obstruction or inconvenience to other road users. Prior to this, the option for compound reduction meant that motorists would pay only RM10 if the fine was settled within 24 hours. They took things for granted since the fine was a small sum,” she said.

Anita explained that food trucks are not allowed to occupy public parking spots to run their businesses, and can only set up shop at designated food truck areas such as Dataran SS13, or for events at the invitation of the organisers.

“As for heavy vehicles, they are required to park at depots or designated spots. But some take the easy way out by parking in bays meant for cars and take up a few lots at that, thus denying other motorists a parking space,” she added.
