From what I know Lori Hantu is for use of site only. Cannot use on public road. I think the lori have no insurance and not number plate.They are pulled to site by tow trucks.So, if u are hit by lori hantu.... insurance dont cover.... mati kutu.

Legally speaking, presently there are no legal requirements for testing of such transporting equipment on site, off main road, within stipulated zone, such as construction site. Any accidents on site, compensation is claimable, if negligence can be proven, from the Contactors' all Risk insurance, which is compulsory before any work can commence at construction site. As common to all machinery, the proper maintenance is utmost important, and that will vary from owner to owner. Most such lori hantu are owner operator and most of them only has a car license or motorbike license only or sometimes with indo drivers who have no license at all.
