SINGAPORE (ANN): Foreign-registered vehicles are not allowed to provide cross-border passenger transport services for hire or reward in Singapore without a valid public service vehicle licence (PSVL), the Land Transport Authority (LTA) said on Saturday (Dec 28).
LTA clarified the regulation in response to queries from The Straits Times on Sameride, a carpool service due to launch a Singapore-Johor Baru carpooling service from Monday .
Sameride estimates that users will be able to significantly reduce the cost of their commute between Johor and Singapore by up to 50% compared to taxi services.LTA said it takes a"serious view towards" foreign registered vehicles illegally providing hire-and-reward services and said it will carry out strong enforcement action against such illegal activities.
