LETTER | Earlier this year, Malaysian Institute of Road Safety Research (Miros) director-general Khairil Anwar Abu Kassim urged the government to ban the sale of car accessories that could pose a risk, especially in the event of a crash.
One such item is the dummy buckle, which was originally meant for plus-sized individuals, but has since been misused by people who refuse to buckle up while driving.
By inserting the dummy buckle into the seat belt buckle, these drivers can avoid the annoying chimes a modern car emits when the belt buckle isn’t fastened.
