More than 40,000 traffic offenders from Singapore, about RM6.5 million (S$2.1 million) in unpaid fines.
That is how much Singaporeans owe the state of Johor for the traffic offences committed there, reported New Straits Times.
Johor police traffic chief, Superintendant Baharudin Mat Taib, said the offences date back two years.
He added: "There are more than 40,000 traffic offenders from Singapore who committed offences in Johor. They have yet to pay a total of RM6.5 million in outstanding summonses over the past two years."
Singaporeans are not the only ones who have traffic offences against their names.
Supt Baharudin said Johor police are looking for more than 30,000 local traffic offenders who have been issued with arrest warrants, owing a staggering RM9.3 million in unpaid summonses.
He said an operation to track down the traffic offenders will be conducted before the Chinese New Year holidays on Feb 8 and 9 under Op Warta.

RM50 TO SETTLE SPEEDING SUMMONS
'Kopi money' risk
Those convicted of graft in Malaysia face up to 20 years' jail and a fine
By Christopher Tan, Senior Correspondent
SINGAPORE drivers in the habit of slipping RM50 (S$21.30) to Malaysian enforcement officers when stopped for speeding across the Causeway may have received their most serious warning yet.
This act of bribery - which some describe as paying a 'speeding toll' - saw eight Singaporeans detained over the Vesak Day weekend.
About 16,000 Singapore vehicles, excluding motorcycles, enter Malaysia every day. Among them were those driven by the eight men and women who were nabbed by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) for allegedly offering bribes of between RM20 and RM110 to settle their traffic offences. The eight, aged between 27 and 66, were released on bail.
An MACC director told The Star newspaper in Malaysia that anyone convicted for the offence can be jailed up to 20 years and fined not more than five times the bribe amount or RM10,000, whichever is higher. 'Don't try to bribe government officials or law enforcement officers, as the MACC is always looking into these cases,' he said.
The news of the arrests is creating a nervous buzz among driving enthusiasts as the June holiday driveaway season starts.
Mr Chris Ng of driving holidays organiser Footworks said: 'This will make people more wary about driving into Malaysia. And those who drive in will definitely keep to the speed limit now.'
