This includes the statistics of accidents involving motorcyclists and their discipline on the road, as based on statistics, two-wheeler occupants, both riders and pillion riders, make up the highest road fatalities, the PIMA president said.
“Furthermore, kapchai [underbone motorcycles] and superbikes [large engine capacity bikes] are two different things. To ride a superbike, it not only requires a [full] B license, but also additional skills and competency that one does not get when getting their B2 license. Safety needs to be front and centre of the consideration as the move can endanger the lives of those unfamiliar with the difference in [license] classes,” he said.
The move to automatically upgrade a motorcyclist’s B2-class license to a full B license could regress the country’s vehicle licensing system as it involves the competency of the rider, he said, adding that those who acquired their full B license through the automatic upgrade may not have their licenses recognised by foreign countries.
factors which need to be considered before the proposal for the automatic upgrade to a full B license for motorcycles can be finalised.
Earlier this month, transport minister Anthony Loke said that the matter of automatically upgrading B2 licenses to full B licenses is still under review by the transport ministry, and later noted that the decision to automatically upgrade B2 license holders to a full B license is not straightforward because JSPT statistics show that the majority of road accidents involve individuals aged between 16 and 35.
The automatic upgrading of motorcycle licenses was first proposed in August last year, submitted by Superbikers Association Malaysia (SAM) president Datuk Abdul Halim Sulaiman. This submission proposed that holders of the B2 motorcycle licence with its 250 cc limit, be upgraded to the full class B license after three years, on the condition the B2 licence holder does not commit any serious traffic offences.
