Transport Minister Anthony Loke told a press conference today that with the e-PSV, drivers working for e-hailing companies such as Grab do not need to attend classes physically, as long as they are studying the module provided by the ministry.“Grab particularly is ready to roll out their e-PSV. Now it's up to the drivers. They can't say we don't do anything. Let the certified process continue.
The first e-hailing PSV examination is set to be on July 12 and drivers will be given one hour to complete it. The Road Transport Department can then organise an examination for all drivers in that particular township at a given date and time.
