Muallim district police chief Mohd Hasni Mohd Nasir said police mounted a roadblock to check the convoy after receiving social media reports about a big group of motorcyclists riding on the North-South Highway.

Investigations showed that they were heading south to a restaurant in Tanjung Malim.

“The Muallim district police then deployed 28 officers and rank-and-file personnel to conduct the roadblock for the purpose of inspecting the motorcycles.

“The operation from 9am to 4pm saw 307 bikers being issued with summonses while another five summonses were issued to other vehicles,” he said in a statement.

Among the offences committed were riding without a licence, having expired road tax, no rear view mirrors, incomplete or fancy number plates and using modified exhaust pipes.
