JOHOR BAHRU, Oct 14 — The Johor Road Transport Department (JPJ) will meet p-hailing operators to discuss measures to raise riders’ awareness of road safety and curb repeat traffic offences, particularly running red lights.

State JPJ director Zulkarnain Yasin said the department had received numerous complaints about traffic offences involving p-hailing riders, particularly running red lights, captured in dashboard camera footage.

According to him, operators should play a role in developing appropriate mechanisms to raise riders’ awareness, remind them not to repeat offences and prevent accidents.

“Through the meeting, I want to find out whether operators have policies to prevent, restrict or suspend riders from operating,” he said in an interview with Bernama here today.
