JPJ hunts illegal motorcycle ride operators ferrying passengers to Sepang F1 circuit

The Road Transport Department (JPJ) is pursuing individuals offering illegal motorcycle ride-hailing services for the F1 Bahrain Grand Prix at Sepang International Circuit.

These services are advertised on social media, with some offering rides between various locations like Mitsui Outlet Park and Kuala Lumpur International Airport Terminal 2.

JPJ is conducting enforcement operations due to concerns over safety risks and increased traffic congestion during the F1 event at Sepang.

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 4 — The Road Transport Department (JPJ) is tracking down individuals and groups offering illegal motorcycle ride-hailing services to transport visitors and spectators attending the Formula One (F1) Bahrain Grand Prix at the Sepang International Circuit (SIC).

According to Berita Harian , the operators were found advertising their services through various social media platforms, offering rides from several locations to the circuit grounds and between SIC and nearby parking areas.

A survey of social media postings showed that both car and motorcycle transport services were being promoted, although motorcycles appeared to be the preferred option among spectators seeking to avoid heavy traffic congestion around the circuit.

On Threads, some riders were offering trips between Mitsui Outlet Park Sepang and SIC for RM10 each way. Others advertised motorcycle taxi services, commonly referred to as “gojek”, charging RM10 for journeys between Kuala Lumpur International Airport Terminal 2 (KLIA2) and SIC.

The report also found touts offering rides for as much as RM80 for a 10-kilometre journey from Mitsui Outlet Park to a Petronas station near the main entrance of the circuit. Some operators were also said to provide helmets for passengers.

While the services have attracted visitors looking for a faster alternative to traffic-clogged roads, concerns have been raised over safety risks, particularly in the event of accidents or other unforeseen incidents.

JPJ is understood to be conducting an enforcement operation around SIC and several hotspot locations near the circuit and KLIA. Authorities are also taking action based on information and advertisements that have gone viral on social media.

The enforcement comes amid an influx of spectators attending the F1 Bahrain Grand Prix, with traffic congestion around the Sepang circuit area drawing widespread attention over the weekend.

据《每日新闻》报道，这些运营商通过各种社交媒体平台宣传他们的服务，提供从多个地点到赛道场地以及SIC与附近停车场之间的乘车服务。

社交媒体帖子调查显示，汽车和摩托车运输服务都在推广，但摩托车似乎是观众的首选，因为他们希望避开赛道周围的严重交通拥堵。
