ABUSE OF PRIVATE VEHICLE STROBE LIGHTS AND SIRENS: LAW ENFORCEMENT FROM THE ISLAMIC PERSPECTIVE
ABUSE OF PRIVATE VEHICLE STROBE LIGHTS AND SIRENS: LAW ENFORCEMENT FROM THE ISLAMIC PERSPECTIVE

Summary/Abstract: The community continues to be disturbed when strobe lights and sirens are abused. While sirens are used by private vehicles, they cause other drivers to automatically move aside to give way to the oncoming vehicle, strobes or light beams cause other drivers to feel blinded. This study employs a sociological method of empirical legal research. This study aims to examine how law enforcement uses Siyasah Dusturi- yah and Law No. 22 of 2009 to target the usage of strobes and sirens on private vehicles. Law enforcement has taken steps to enforce the law on the use of strobes and sirens, including outreach with vehicle communities, based on the findings of the research. In line with Islamic teachings, the community and students have taken into consideration various aspects, particularly when viewed through the lens of Siyasah Dusturiyah. These include highlighting the advantages of promot- ing legal compliance and awareness as well as enhancing traffic safety and comfort.
