Pandu Cermat: Let’s work together to keep our roads safe

Do your part in keeping our roads safe by keeping an eye on errant motorists during this festive season.

While on the road keep a look out for errant drivers and take a picture of them in the act and send it here.

Of course it’s not a good idea to snap pictures while you’re driving, so get someone else to do it please.

Here are some guidelines to make sure that you’re efforts in catching the idiotic driver in the act of being an idiot are not in vain and the authorities can take action against the culprit.

  1. Take picture of the culprit committing the act, not after.
  2. The picture is able to visually identify that the driver is committing an offense.
  3. Make sure the picture is clear with the vehicle registration number clearly visible.

More information here.

Keep our roads safe and drive safe.

Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri everyone and Maaf Zahir Batin.

Open invitation to my designer friends

Peeps, Rudy and Vernon.

Help me beautify my blog. I’m planning to post a Hari Raya greeting soon and I need a nice image to go along with it.

For Ramadhan, I used a design Rudy made and I thought it’d be nice to have another original design to put on my blog.

Can you guys help?

Deadline: Friday morning, Sep 26

If you guys are not too busy that is :)

Thanks!

Pandu Cermat: Road safety Hari Raya ads

Funny comes with a message. Think safety!

Hari Raya road safety ads jointly developed by the MOT, JKJR and MIROS started airing Saturday night, Sep 20.

Have you seen them?

Rather good I’d say. I especially like the one with the two brothers.

By the way, did you know OPS SIKAP 17 is now on?

Two more ads + one bonus ad after the jump.

OPS SIKAP 17 now on

Starting Sept 22 JPJ, PDRM and LPKP along with other related government agencies will organise a joint operation keeping tabs on road users during the very busy and dangerous upcoming Hari Raya season. OPS SIKAP 17 will run for 15 days up to Oct 6.

During this period, officers will not hesitate to issue the maximum allowable compound to offenders committing the following six serious offenses.

  1. Exceeding the legal speed limit
  2. Queue jumping
  3. Running or not obeying traffic lights
  4. Driving on the emergency lane
  5. Overtaking at double line stretches
  6. Driving dangerously

The compound is RM300. Non-negotiable and no duit kopi accepted.

Fuel prices down another 10 sen

RM2.45: Latest price at the pumps as of Wednesday midnight

Good news for those who will be doing a whole heap of traveling this Raya — including me.

The Domestic Trade and Consumer affairs has just announced that fuel prices are going down a further 10 sen as of midnight Wednesday since the last price adjustment was made on Aug 23.

The updated petrol prices per litre are as follows:

  • RON97 down to RM2.45 from RM2.55
  • RON92 down to RM2.30 from RM2.40
  • Diesel down to RM2.40 from RM2.50

This is the second time the government had reviewed and adjusted national fuel prices. The first brought prices down from a choking RM2.70 per litre of RON97 petrol to RM2.55 per litre.

Pak Lah (boleh blah!) said the 10 sen reduction is the most that the government could afford at this moment in time.

For me, it looks like Shell V-Power racing is a feasible option again and here’s looking forward to the government implementing a full float system soon.

Read more about it here.

Power to the people!

Shoe Shopping

One weekend about two weeks back mum told me Timberland was doing a stock clearance sale.

Having being the victim of a shoe theft recently I thought it be a good idea to get a new pair of shoes that I can use to go to work with.

Marlyne talked about how badly worn her trainers are so I thought I’d do a shoe story of my own.

I didn’t tell you guys this but I got two pairs of shoes swiped at my apartment a couple of months back. One was a fairly used but still in good condition all terrain Pumas and the other was a sleek looking grey and purple Nike Air Zoom TI Street that I got as a birthday present from mum.

Really sad to loose that because I just got it and they practically looked brand new. I was just about to finish breaking them in too. I take really good care of my stuff so you can imagine my frustration.

It happened while I was at work and what peeved me off the most was the jerks that took off with my shoes stole my shoe horn as well!

We’ve been staying at this apartment for nearly 3 years now and never had any problems. We leave nearly all our shoes outside (but within the grilled area of our unit), everyone does it as well. I guess it could be a new tenant trying to be funny.

Sad gits. I hope the get their legs broken or something.

So back to my shoe story…it’s nothing much really, it’s just that I thought I’d with you what’s in my shoe cabinet at the mo.

Peeps tagged me

Peeps is playing this chain blog game where he posts a series of questions, answers them and then name people he would like to answer the same series of questions. The game called Blog Tag.

Blog Tag is something like answering the surveys you get on Friendster and then passing it on to your friends for them to answer. It’s an interesting way to know more about your friends.

Here’s how you Blog Tag:

  1. Answer the questions and post them up on your blog (sorry, non-bloggers will need to get a blog first :P)
  2. Once you’re done, tag your other friends and get them to tag their other friends. You can’t tag the person who has already tagged you.
  3. After that, put a comment on the blog of person that tagged you and link back to your blog. You do this so that once everyone has tagged everyone, we’ll be able to create a Blog Tag tree like this.
  4. Remember: link the people you’re tagging back to his/her blog. For example, if you tag me then link my name back to my blog like this: Amin Ashaari
  5. Originally it should be five questions and tag five friends, but what the heck no one’s keeping score so tag away!

    More reading on Blog Tag here and here.

    Enough talk about Blog Tag, let’s start tagging people!
