\u00a0<\/strong>SETIAWANGSA<\/strong>, 14 February 2026:\u00a0 The Vehicle Theft and Accident Reduction Council of Malaysia (VTAREC), together with Polis Diraja Malaysia (PDRM) and Jabatan Pengangkutan Jalan Malaysia (JPJ), organised a mini campaign to spread awareness on vehicle theft and road safety to the public. This collaboration highlights the commitment of all parties involved in supporting public education and awareness programmes. The event was held at AEON Mall AU2 Setiawangsa, Kuala Lumpur.<\/p>\n

The mini campaign aimed to encourage the public to be more alert and responsible in protecting their vehicles and practising safe driving habits. Through the collaboration with PDRM and JPJ, the programme focused on raising awareness about preventing vehicle theft and road accidents, especially with the festive season approaching.<\/p>\n

Many fun and educational activities were held during the event, including sharing meaningful messages on an engagement wall, a wheel of fortune, a steering wheel game, quizzes and a colouring contest. These activities managed to attract many shoppers and families, creating a lively and positive atmosphere at the VTAREC booth.<\/p>\n

Informational flyers from VTAREC, PDRM and JPJ which contained simple and practical tips on how to prevent vehicle theft and road accidents were also given out to help increase public awareness. Through this initiative, the public were given the opportunity to engage directly with the enforcement officers to seek clarifications and receive further information.<\/p>\n
