PETALING JAYA: Traffic violations that are committed by delivery or p-hailing riders involve several factors, including pressure from the service providers, says Malaysian eHailing Alliance chief activist Jose Rizal.

He claimed that some service providers have set unreasonable delivery times which forced some riders to break traffic rules. This, in turn, could lead to road accidents.
