民政党峇都区部于上周三(11月14日)走访了怡保路4英里半，与当地的商家会面，以了解他们目前所面对的问题。
峇都区民政党服务中心协调员刘华才博士指出，他们是接获当地商家的投诉，指当地的道路有一处被误为U转处，导致许多车辆都在那里U转，不仅造成交通阻塞，也对附近的商店构成危险。其实正确的U转处是在前端，但却没有清楚的告示牌，导致许多驾驶者都不晓得，唯有继续使用该"U转处"。
"由于该条道路并不宽阔，许多车辆在U转时几乎要撞到附近的店面，有一定的危险性。我们将就此事向吉隆坡市政局反映，并要求当局加长分界线，更要清楚地显示U转的告示牌，让驾驾驶者晓得须驶到前端的正确U转处才进行U转。"刘华才表示。
刘华才博士也补充，民政党将持续服务峇都国会选区的居民，并解决他们的民生问题和提高他们的生活素质
Confusing U-turn signboard misleads the motorists
Gerakan Batu Division promises to solve the traffic problem in Jalan Ipoh
Press statement by Batu Gerakan Service Centre Coordinator
Dr. Dominic Lau
21 November 2012
Last Wednesday (14 November), members of Gerakan Batu Division visited the Batu 4½ of Jalan Ipoh to meet with the local businessmen in order to have a grasp of problems that they are facing currently.
Batu Gerakan Service Centre Coordinator Dr. Dominic Lau said that they have received complaints from the local businessmen who pointed out that one particular section of the road at the local has been mistaken as a U-turn prompting many vehicles to make a illegal U-turn at that point, apart from causing traffic congestion, it also poses danger to the shops nearby. In fact, the actual U-turn is located further ahead, however there is not a clear signboard being put in place which leads to many motorists unaware and therefore keep on using the same "U-turn" point.
"Due to the narrowness of the road, the shop houses nearby are at the close call whenever there is a vehicle making a U-turn, certainly there is a risk poses to them. We will reflect this matter to the DBKL and demand the authority to extend the dividing line, moreover to erect a clear signboard for U-turn, so that the motorists are informed that the actual U-turn is laid upfront and they will have to go further ahead before making the U-turn legally," said Dr. Dominic Lau.
Dr. Dominic Lau also added that Gerakan would continue to serve the residents of Batu parliament constituency, solve their livelihood problems and improve their quality of life.
