Over 60% of commercial vehicle operators failed JPJ safety audit, says DG


PUTRAJAYA: More than 60% of the 500 commercial vehicle companies audited under the Special Operation on Safety Audit System Guidelines (Ops Khas JISA) failed to meet safety standards, mainly due to improper installation of Global Positioning System (GPS) devices, the Road Transport Department (JPJ) said on Wednesday (Aug 27).

JPJ director-general Datuk Aedy Fadly Ramli said the audit, conducted between June 23 and July 31, was only the first phase in a nationwide effort targeting some 300,000 commercial vehicle operators.
