PUTRAJAYA:
The Road Transport Department (JPJ) is offering a 70% discount on traffic summonses for two months, including for cases that are still blacklisted beginning tomorrow.

Transport minister Wee Ka Siong said the discount, which is being offered in conjunction with JPJ’s 75th anniversary, involved 3.5 million active summonses identified from 2010 to March this year.

The payment of summonses can be made at all JPJ offices and online through the department’s official portal.

“I encourage the public to pay their summonses online to avoid congestion at JPJ offices,” he told reporters after JPJ’s 75th Platinum Jubilee celebration here today.

Wee said JPJ also introduced JPJeQ, an online waiting queue system today to avoid the 3Cs (crowded, confined and close) at all JPJ premises and counters.

“The mobile application will allow customers to choose the JPJ branches which are less crowded and use QR codes to get the waiting number, and it is a friendly app to people with disabilities and senior citizens,” Wee said.

In conjunction with the anniversary, JPJ also launched a special vehicle registration plate for the Federal Territory of Putrajaya.

Vehicle owners can bid for the plate “FD” via the online vehicle registration number bidding system (JPJeBid), beginning today.

Wee said the registration number bidding will be closed at 10pm on Friday and the results would be announced the next day.
