Yesterday my friend bump into a polis roadblock. They saw his car got rollcage..then ask him"apa ni ?"

He said "untuk keselamatan pemandu and orang yang berada di dalam kereta. "
Then the police said, "ya ke ? Ini bahaya tau ? besi besi banyak." but the rollcage was wraped in superlon and some foam.

The police wrote him a saman stating "ubahsuai yang berbahaya."
I was like Hah ? :blink: bahaya ?? What kind of bahaya.

Acctually i think rollcage is good wah...add more protection to the driver and strengten the passenger compartment...

Any comments ?? :)

It is illegal because on the street, you're not wearing a helmet which will
protect your skull from hitting with the roll cage, even with the additional
foam, you are not safe because the impact would be very strong in a crash.

thats why its illegal to have roll cages on a normal street car.

its because you are not wearing a helmet in your car. in other words, in an event of an accident, your head might hit the steel bars and die from head wounds.

they say, "nak racing la ni'. not thinking that it adds rigidity to the car and hence serve better protection in event of a collision.

your head will hit the the bars should there be an accident. superlon or any foam also cannot save your skull from cracking.

Earlier got a post discussing about this already... if i remember correctly, the significant factor that say this is illegal is due to :
1) Hard to extract the victim if involved in accident, not easily accessible due to additional metal around
2) If they approve this mod, then your kedai "Abang" will be selling the beng version, which further void all OEM warranty on the car & also the actual safety standard.
3) Like you said, accident could cause head injury.

Hi All :wavey:

I'm gonna post my DIY brake shoe change on my Myvi. Most of us know that brake shoes last very long, almost the lifespan of the car in some cases. Therefore we do not see many people changing the brake shoe. However, because myvi brakes suck, I thought of getting a better brand, at least at my perspective.

Story: This is my first DIY brake shoe change. I have done disc brake pad replacement which is fairly simple and easy but not brake shoe replacement. Thus before I...
