KUALA LUMPUR: A motorist who was driving under the influence of alcohol rammed his vehicle into the rear of a police car at a roadblock at the PJS 2 Toll Plaza, Petaling Jaya near here, on Friday.
Petaling Jaya police chief Assistant Commissioner Nik Ezanee Mohd Faisal said the 61-year-old man was detained at about 9.30pm.
“The vehicle driven by the man rammed the back of a police car driven by a senior police officer from Bukit Aman. No one was injured in the incident,” he said in a statement.
Nik Ezanee said a breathalyser test revealed that the suspect’s alcohol content had exceeded the permissible limit.
The case is being investigated under Section 45(a) (1) and Section 42 (1) of the Road Transport Act for driving under the influence of alcohol and reckless driving.
The suspect was also issued a RM1,000 compound fine for defying the Movement Control Order (MCO). – BERNAMA
