Puspakom Sdn Bhd, the Malaysian computerised vehicle inspection centre, is offering free inspections for all private cars and motorcycles in what it declares as part of its social responsibility.
The free inspection started today and will go on until Sept 9.
"The total inspection of vehicles will be carried out by authorised Puspakom staff," said Puspakom in a statement.
The free service came a day after an announcement that the Damansara-Puchong Highway toll operator will be opening up its route for one day on National Day.
This is the first time the operator has agreed not to charge toll.
In the announcement on Sunday, Works Minister Datuk Shaziman Abu Mansor also said that other toll road operators are offering discounts tomorrow.
Those travelling in cars along the North-South Expressway, the Seremban-Port Dickson Highway, Elite Expressway and the Second Link Expressway from midnight to 7am on Aug 31 and Sept 1 will enjoy a 20% discount. At present, they get a 10% discount.
