Last two days, I was shocked when reading the newspaper. The rule for mandatory for passenger behind to wear seat belt. What? Does the government crazy or stupid? Do they done enough research on that? Yes, it is true that certain country in the world has implemented that. BUT, does they compare those situation, condition, culture, road, family members, and other option that was different compare to others country.
Why I said stupid?
1. Average family members in europe, china, etc was 2. In Malaysia, it could goes to as many as 10 or more. But Average is 3 to 4 (EXCEPT chinese, and minister.. even Pak Lah only have 2 if I'm not wrong). But average local was 3 (not including father and mother). So how you want to tie 3 family members with 2 seat belt behind. One of them either not wearing seat belt or damn suffer (not comfortable)
2. How will you wearing a seat belt when at the same time you need to breast-feed your baby, hold you baby (as they are crying due to long journey), etc?
3. If you have 3 babies (one each year or each within 2 years range), how will you put them? Of course 2 will need baby car-seat and those two will accommodate at least 80% of behind seat. What about the other kids? Hold in-front which then violate other rules? How? Buy bigger car? If you are rich (with salary above 10K per month) then it won't be a problem. What about average malaysian?
4. Our road condition is not good. There are holes, bumper, slide, etc which make your driving like 4-wheel adventure. If you are a minister of course you might travel via planes etc. BUT if you are normal malaysian... Do you think wearing seat belt behind (consider 3 people behind) is comfortable?
5. You may say we can stop for breast-feed, etc and not doing in the car... If you have a baby, how many times do you want to stop. For example one hour journey for us may ok but not to baby.
6. It is easy for minister as they are having black dark screen behind and they are MINISTER, won't get summons.....
So, I think, this rules is ridiculous and stupid. They should do more research by collecting statistical data from malaysia (average malaysian that travel most with family)

Dude,
your thoughts on this matter is so immature. Seriously, I have no idea which school had u been, cuz I can't imagine one that would bring out people with thoughts like that !
Why I said that
you MIGHT BE STUPID :
1) " So how you want to tie 3 family members with 2 seat belt behind. "
A vehicle with 2 seat belts is meant only for FOUR passengers and no more ( two in front, two at the back ). Never THREE, you don't ! Excessive loads could lead to terrible accident as every vehicles is designed to deal with specific weight. It's for your own and your vehicle's SAFETY !
A normal SEDAN family car is designed to fit up to FIVE passengers. In this case, there should THREE seat belts at the back. TWO seat belts are normally for smaller ones, like Kancil and Kembara ! If you wish for more seats, then get a BUS !
2) " How will you wearing a seat belt when at the same time you need to breast-feed your baby, hold you baby "
Seriously, you know nothing !
Babies or little kids should not be held in your arms while traveling on cars. They should be strapped on a special baby seat. This is also for SAFETY as proven by many crash tests ! If they can't stand long journey, either stop at any R&R or safe roadsides for proper feeding or just don't bring them along !
3) " If you have 3 babies (one each year or each within 2 years range), how will you put them? "
Simple.
Get a bigger car or just get a BUS ! Which is important ? Your money or your kids ? If money matters most, just get yourself castrated ! Dah tau tak mampu, nak buat anak lagi ?
4) " Our road condition is not good. There are holes, bumper, slide, etc which make your driving like 4-wheel adventure. "
D'oh !
That's the reason why you should strap yourself at the back seat, you IDIOT ! ( Sorry for the last word cuz at this point, I think you deserve it ! )
5) " You may say we can stop for breast-feed, etc and not doing in the car... If you have a baby, how many times do you want to stop. "
Then, don't bring them ! Or just don't have them ! Again, it's about your money or your kids ! If you still wish to tag them along, follow advice no.2 or just use any public transportations. There's more than airplane service out there !
6) " It is easy for minister as they are having black dark screen behind and they are MINISTER, won't get summons..... "
No comment.
Cuz not relevant at all !
This is not about summons but this is about your own SAFETY ! Let them die in their luxury cars if they must but just think about it, is it your LIFE or your MONEY ?
Takpun, pangkah la BN lagi !
Mentaliti mcm nih laa kasi org mcm Samy Vellu boleh segar bertahun tahun !
Hhahahhahaha ...
