KUALA LUMPUR: The government has made the option available for e-hailing drivers to take the Public Service Vehicle (PSV) course electronically as they work towards getting their PSV licence by July 12.
Transport Minister Anthony Loke said e-hailing operators had been given the green light to offer ePSV courses to their drivers as an alternative to attending the RM200 six-hour course at designated driving schools before sitting for a one-hour test to obtain their licence.
The ministry had made the effort to simplify the PSV licence application process and would not be extending the deadline, Loke said in response to demands from Grab Drivers Malaysia Association for a six-month extension after members cited difficulties such as problems sitting for the course, high fees and the test’s difficulty level.
Loke explained that the service was disrupted by upgrading works under the Klang Valley Double Track project. Loke said commuters could check for real-time information on train arrivals, departures and delays on MyRailtime.
