According to Section 28 of the Road Transport Act, the owner of a foreign driver's license can drive in Malaysia, provided that the foreign driver's license is valid, supported by an English translation to avoid the language barrier and certified by the embassy of the country of origin in Malaysia. Thus, tourists can use the rights of their country for 90 days, which is the validity period of the tourist visa; however, this situation also depends on the applicants' citizenship and their country's status with the Malaysian government. However, individuals wishing to stay in Malaysia for more than 90 days for various reasons such as work or study must obtain a Malaysian driver's license, which can be obtained by attending courses and exams offered by Jabatan Pengangkutan Jalan (JPJ).
- Traffic rules
- Road signs in Malaysia follow international road signs, so despite the occasional word in Malay, most foreigners should understand the basic road signs.
- The slow lane is three lanes to the left, and the fast lane is the far right lane. In a three-lane,
- you can stay in the middle lane while driving at a constant speed.
- In general, the speed limit in the city is always 60-80 km/h, but when you are on the North-South highway, the speed limit can vary from 90 to 110 km/h. You should also be aware that there are a number of strategically placed speed cameras, so please refrain from speeding.
- There are always many motorcyclists on the road, so you should always be aware of your surroundings as their safety should also be your responsibility while driving. Be careful at traffic lights, intersections, and when entering a curve or curve.
- Always remember to fasten your seat belts before driving and obey speed limits.
