On Saturday (15 October), PROLINTAS Kajang SILK took to Twitter sharing that a driver had been caught at a toll booth for trying to avoid paying the toll. It was also found that he had skipped paying the toll 59 times.
The driver was stopped by a toll kiosk employee who also demanded that he pay RM256.20 in administrative costs and missed toll charges.
According to the tweet, the incident occurred late at night, and the driver was told to pay the unpaid fines there right away.
Netizens expressed their disappointment that the driver did not face more severe penalties for his actions.
Many Twitter users believed that in order for the Honda driver to learn from his actions, he should have been charged five to ten times what he avoided paying in tolls.
Kali ini, pemandu kereta Honda pula kantoi selepas 59 kali terlepas bayar tol, dgn tunggakan bayaran sejumlah RM256.20 termasuk caj pentadbiran.

Kejadian berlaku mlm tadi di Lebuhraya Kajang SILK. Amaun kerugian telah dikembalikan pada masa & lokasi sama oleh si pelaku. #Kantoi pic.twitter.com/5ttTffmELR
How this driver avoided paying toll charges so many times without being caught was a topic of much discussion.
The practice of avoiding toll fees is becoming more popular among drivers who wish to save a few ringgit.
Aiyo, that’s very unfair for everyone who has been paying the toll. Please don’t do this, guys!
