The Malaysian seatbelt laws were found to be non-comprehensive as it has not been reviewed for 30 years except for the recent introduction of the rear seatbelt law. The contents of the law are generally addressed without specification on certain matters for example on child restraint and pregnant women. Issues of liability of drivers on omission by passengers and punishment on repeated offenders have never been discussed in Malaysian seatbelt law.
