SPAD suspends 27 Transnasional bus permits


PETALING JAYA: Twenty-seven Konsortium Transnasional Berhad (KTB) bus permits plying the Kota Baru-Kuala Lumpur route will be suspended from April 23, following a crash by one of its buses near Bentong that claimed three lives on April 12.

The Land Public Transport Commission (SPAD) said an audit on KTB found that the company did not monitor its bus fleet's speed limits, and that the global positioning system (GPS) trackers on these buses were not working.
