Controversy
On January of 2022, a car group posted a picture of their gathering which the cars are parked along the roads emergency lane. This results in mixed reactions from people as the road was usually full of cars stopping on the roadside and emergency lanes which is very hazardous.[5]
Starting from February of 2022, the road will be constantly patrolled by Seremban police and JPJ that will not allow and issue fines to any vehicle that stop along the road except for emergencies.[6]
Plans to build a rest stop/vista point for road users to stop by safely are still in the works.
On 22 May 2022, a Malaysian artiste, Baby Shima made a TikTok video at the emergency lane which is against the Malaysian road laws.
The Director of Department of Road Transport (JPJ) in the state of Negri Sembilan, Hanif Yusabra Yusof said, the action of a driver who stops in the emergency lane of the roadway without reasonable excuse is an offense.
However, people who want to take pictures on the road is not an offence if they do not park on the shoulder of the road and emergency lanes for the purpose of taking pictures and gathering.[7]
