RTD to audit 500 bus, lorry operators starting Monday
BUTTERWORTH: The Road Transport Department (RTD) will audit 500 public service vehicle (PSV) and goods commercial vehicle operators deemed high-risk under its special enforcement strategy, "RTD Inspection and Safety Audit" (JISA), starting Monday. RTD director-general Datuk Aedy Fadly Ramli said the identified high-risk operators include 300 lorries, 100 tour buses and 100 express buses. He said operators with outstanding summonses were identified through lists compiled by the RTD and the Land Public Transport Agency (Apad). He said the main focus of the special operation is to assess companies' compliance with safety aspects, vehicle maintenance, driver management, and records under the Road Transport Act 1987 and related regulations. "The enforcement of the JISA special operation involves inspection reports and safety audits focusing on compliance with the Industry Code of Practice (ICOP) concerning safety in the transport industry. "It also allows for the checking and resolution of outstanding summonses by vehicle owners and drivers, as well as compliance with vehicle technical specifications," he told reporters after the MyLesen B2 Driving Licence handover ceremony here today. Aedy Fadly said the audit was initiated following the bus crash that claimed the lives of 15 Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris (UPSI) students on June 9, along with several other recent accidents involving heavy vehicles. He said RTD would take strict action against any operators found violating regulations or neglecting safety, including issuing offence notices, suspending or revoking vocational driving licences (PSV/GDL), or operator licences. "This measure is part of RTD's ongoing efforts to enhance road safety and further strengthen the integrity of the national transport system," he added.
