i'm curious. i have a friend who recently got pulled over bcoz he was driving shirtless in a hot, sunny day. he was warned, but no saman though. so i'm curious, is it illegal to drive shirtless in malaysia? what about driving naked?

and dont start with girls driving topless or naked. that's just senseless .

There's no law about driving shirtless in Malaysia, I think.

I've seen people riding bikes without shirts at beaches in Pahang & T'ganu.

i also want to know....

i did once... that time my shirt was wet due to heavy rain...

yeah, but it was made law sometime in the late 90s.

but is it illegal to drive shirtless, or even to ride motorcycle shirtless? the beaches doesnt count. we're talking about downtown KL.

i did once for the lulz. no problems. just have a bit problems with other lady driver...

DRIVING WITHOUT WEARING ANY SHOES IS ILLEGAL. Friend's father got a summon for it. Because the police can't find anything wrong about him >.<

I had seen some old folks drive shirtless, nothing seemed to happen to them also

I never heard this kind of lame law.

But i m wondering is it illegal walk shirtless at the street?

no problem topless here for men...

i dont think so, btw driving wearing a sarong or kain pelikat is also an offense that can be summoned by the police.

rly? i always drive wearing kain pelekat...
breezy...

Female topless - Confirm kena!

and might cause alot of accident too

polis kata jangan...

ya relly.

was stopped at a roadblock while searching for midnight butger and told by the nice policemen there
only pants and short is allowed to be wore while driving.

what prob? she got high is it? driving with one hand and the other....

for us, 95% of us thinks that driving with topless is nth...
but i once heard that, driving without shirt is illegal...
yes it is illegal haha...

this is funny. im sure the summoned wasnt needed. n the police just wanted some extra cash for mamak store. btw, they all have anti-corruption tag in their shirts.

Yes driving topless is illegal~

usually after finish futsal match (9 pm), heavy sweat, tke off clothe and drive.
don bring spare clothe. don wan to double the amount of laundry.

well, there is no existing law on shirtless driving, whether for male or female

i think there is something to do with ethics?

theres no law... but it looks inappropriate. so he got warned.

it is illegal. It is stated in the rule book (what ever that book's name is..)

I tried searching for the Road Laws of Malaysia from Google, it kinda gives the JKR website --> http://www.jkr.gov.my/v2/english/index.asp
Somebody try to find where are those laws in that website

On another good site I found, there's a whole bunch of laws, pretty much direct, but still there's too much laws to read to find that "driving shirtless is illegal".
Happy searching it in here --> http://kedah.jkr.gov.my/gendirec/rta/act333.htm

No shirt so what? Lelaki also got tutup aurat ah?

Fakap polis, go fly kite.

tumpang,

want to know, coz i chinese boy, used to wear knee-long pants while motorbiking, is it illegal?

Got. Navel to knee.

pakai songkok also can naik motor... so make sense to drive without shirt on lo for me... since it don't protect you in accident

shirtless mean u disturb AUntie eye sight. He cause accident for Auntie

its illegal not wearing shirt while driving. when u take driving license they already told in the taklimat.

wearing selipar while driving also illegal. but barefoot no problem. if kena, then there is something wrong with the officer .

Me Too !!! or the police want to check out your body !!!

I drove topless a few times, mostly becoz i dun wan dirty my seat coz got mud or things like that.... Met police once, he just stare at me one kind and let me pass...Not to mention all the other cars' drivers also stare with a funny look

my bro last time didnt wear shirt while driving.. he was with his GF that time... then theres a road block... so the police ask him.. dari mana? baru habis "main" ka? then my bro lol with the police... the policeman let him go.....

aiya people stare then show them muscle la. pose for them a bit if they waiting for you to put on show.

wanna say something say la. stare cock as if i care. throw sand at your eyes la.

In kampung area can la..i wear helmet driving with friends for lulz. i dont think its against the law gua.

just dun kena tangkap,

if kena tangkap and unlucky, even drving with bare footed, driving with can drinks, driving while eating, driving with sunglasses, driving with window open and one hand at outside holding cigarette can all be "illegal"..
depends on ur luck and the pulis's mood loh..

pulis kata jangan, jangan lah tu..

I don't recall that undang2. I took the test about 10 years ago. Was it just added in the syllabus?

if u got flabby or boroi perut..better wear laa

there is a law that states driving topless is illegal...i can't remember where i read it.....

It's not against the law but it could very well be a perv who flahses himself, so why not just stop and check, heck he could even be a wanted rapist.

it seems there are those who believe it's against the law. if u dont mind, could u state the source?

and there are also those who believe it's not. but then again, is it bcoz u havent kantoi yet? i mean, i casually rode bikes without helmet around my housing area and never kantoi before, but it doesnt make it legal ...

if being topless in public places can be tangkap by pulis, why driving topless can be exempted from it

and also whats the point in driving topless, u can catch a cold due to aircond

bcoz that is quite specific to a location - in public. how does being in car constitute being in public?

but as soon as after u have parked ur car, u still need to step out from the car, from that moment, u re in the public place alrdy...

unless that place is home, pool, fields and other places where topless is acceptable

I know this is old but I don't think it's illegal. I was stopped by police once in Uptown while I was looking for burger. They asked why I didn't bring a shirt with me. I said, "Salahkah?" He replied, "Tak salah. Tanya saje."

And a few nights ago, I drove into a police roadblock again. Got stopped (I think again cuz I didn't wear shirt). But they didn't say anything about it. Just say random checking. So they asked me to step out of the car so they can check my seat, dashboard, car boot, and stuff. They also asked me to empty my pants' pockets. I think they were checking for drugs or sth.

After checking and not finding anything, they said no problem and it was just a random checking.

Dude, u know right its not the right move to bump a 3years old thread?

Err pulled over by which authority?
If he driving out from our military camp, sure get pulled over by Probos, even singlet cannot.

Your weapon of choice sir ?

Would love to do this one day but meh..maybe not in Malaysia then .

Oops! Lol.

2008 - 2013 why 3 years?

it is illegal. i can still remember this, even from my L license lecture 13 years ago.

i remember so well because....nevermind...

the rest of you who say it's legal can fly kites. including those cops. period.

TS started a good question! I believe most of them wanted to know as well

Hot day, trying to fix some sounds in my car.. Drove around my taman shirtless.. Got some idiotic neighbour complaint

if wimiz sure ramai follow and mat motor drive same speed at the side all the way

[WTA]

Is it illegal to drive senseless in Malaysia?

when you drive shirtless, ppl automatically assume you are pantless too

Yes, you cant drive shirtless, singlets are also borderline. Nowadays polis also too busy doing roadblocks and cari makan, so may forget the law. I'm unker so remember that you also cannot do u-turns at traffic lights or not stop at zebra crossing is against the law.

if its a crime to be topless , emino would probably kena hukum gantung sampai mati 6-7 times already.

on a more serious note, i heard of this rule before, but never got stopped by the cops before ( tak pakai baju after futsal ).

fail maths ah? 2013-2008 = 3 ?


lmao

Still old thread right so shut the piehole then.................

lol i do this every weekend after my futsal game...

my friend who has a dad working as cop can confirm that driving shirtless is illegal. regards

Singlets and topless was illegal, so was smoking(cant remeber driving or riding).

Just use two band aids to cover your nipples if your overtly sensitive

wondering too, cos i've been pulled over by police once cos i was driving without shirt last time. 2 years ago i think. that was cos i just back from my kebun plucking some fruits and bring back to home that time. it was damn not that time. maybe i arose suspicious to them cos my arm was heavily tattooed and kebetulan juga that time was Ops Cantas Kenyalang to eradicate gangsters in Sarawak. lucky i was not kena saman that time, they just gave me warning

there's no such law
i remember doing it too with open window
its soo breezy
weraing only shorts

with no law against it, you can even get naked while driving
well to avoid for indecency charge maybe you get a darker tinted glass
or put a mini dark curtain on your window

drove around shirtless many times inside my taman area

kena stared by my neighbours but i dun really give a damn

i guess they have never seen manboobs before

lol of coz ppl look at you driving with shirtless

but you oni do this in ur taman la, if drive further, dare to be like this ?

really leh..i nvr seen guy/girl drive with shirtless

What if sitting at the back seat shirtless, while driver is fully clothed. Is that illegal too?
