Minister hits out at low driver standards

Minister of Public Works and Transport Sun Chanthol said on Tuesday that 98 per cent of Cambodia’s tuk-tuk and PassApp drivers do not have driving licences and have a poor awareness of the road traffic law.

Chanthol called on the drivers to attend driving schools within three months, saying that authorities would take legal action against them without exception as they are a major factor in traffic congestion and road accidents.

At a meeting of the National Committee on Road Traffic Safety at the Ministry of the Interior on Tuesday, Chanthol said Cambodia has 20,000 tuk-tuk and PassApp drivers, but many remain unlicensed and drive dangerously.
