PETALING JAYA: If passengers are to have smooth and safe rides, get express bus drivers accredited and clamp down on bad practices committed by irresponsible bus operators says the Pan Malaysian Bus Operators Association, adding such a move would ensure the safety of other road users, too.

Association president Datuk Mohamad Ashfar Ali told The Star that accreditation cards could hold the drivers as well as bus operators accountable should any complaint or untoward incidents occur.
