The target group of the interviews would be the higher authorities that deal directly with the problem namely Traffic Branch of The Royal Malaysian Police, and Jabatan Pengangkutan Jalan (JPJ). It is aimed to provide better understanding regarding the offence of exceeding speed limits and punishment imposed to the traffic offender, whether the existence punishment under both Acts is severe and sufficient enough in order to deter the offence or merely because there is a lack of enforcement on the part of the enforcement agencies. Significantly, this research study is helped to be one of the platforms to enhance the existing law in Malaysia so that the law will deter the crime effectively and this research will be a stepping stone to the legislative body in playing their roles to impose an effective punishment towards the traffic offenders in order to deter the crimes successfully. 2011 Student Project NonPeerReviewed text en http://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/35889/1/35889.pdf Seman, Mohd Tajaruddin and Shaarani, Nurul Ashikin and Norzali, Nurzulyana (2011) A legal study on the offence of exceeding speed limits and its punishment as provided under Road Transport Act 1987 and Land Public Transport Act 2010 / Mohd Tajaruddin Seman, Nurul Ashikin Shaarani and Nurzulyana Norzali.
