No-go for vehicles over five years old, says SPAD

KUALA LUMPUR: Vehicles which are more than five years old will not be allowed to be registered for e-hailing or taxi services once changes to the Land Public Transport Act 2010 are gazetted.

When the amendments take effect, Land Public Transport Commission (SPAD) chief executive officer Mohd Azharuddin Mat Sah said drivers would need to either have new vehicles or vehicles which were less than five years old from the date of registration with the Road Transport Department (JPJ).
