KUCHING, Aug 14 — The Ministry of Works has identified 99 locations on federal roads nationwide where fatal accidents frequently occur, thanks to the use of the Road Accident Management System (RAMS). Works Minister Datuk Seri Alexander Nanta Linggi revealed that RAMS, developed under the MYJalan initiative, helps in systematically managing, analyzing and displaying road accident data.
The 99 "blackspots" were revealed through the integration of accident data from the Integrated Police Reporting System (IPRS). Linggi highlighted that Malaysia's average of almost 18 lives lost daily due to road accidents is a significant concern. He emphasized that accurate and quality data is crucial for planning safer, more efficient, and sustainable road infrastructure.
