Impact of VEP Fine Enforcement on Singapore–Malaysia Traffic Flow

How VEP Fine Enforcement Affects Traffic Flow

• Increased Compliance Checks at Entry Points: With more stringent enforcement, vehicles without valid VEP tags or with unpaid fines are flagged at the border. This has led to slightly longer waiting times during peak hours, especially at Johor Bahru Checkpoints.
• Reduction in Non-Compliant Vehicles: Regular enforcement has discouraged non-compliant driving. Many drivers now prefer to get their VEP matters sorted before travel, which has gradually improved the flow for fully compliant motorists.
• Shift in Travel Timing: Some motorists are avoiding peak enforcement times, resulting in a redistribution of traffic throughout the day. Weekend mornings and weekday late evenings have seen smoother crossings for compliant drivers.

Why Compliance is Important

Ignoring VEP regulations can result in hefty fines, inconvenience at the border, and possible entry denial into Malaysia. Beyond avoiding penalties, having your VEP in order ensures a smoother travel experience.
