Taxi drivers will have to get through linguistic, psychological and behavioural tests as a pre-requisite for obtaining professional permits very soon.
The move comes as part of Roads and Transport Authority's (RTA) strategy in forging partnerships to serve its objectives at world-class standards.
Bringing happiness to people While introducing the new yardstick for cabbies, Abdullah Yousef Al Ali, CEO of RTA Public Transport Agency, said that the new measures aim at "bringing happiness to people." Al Ali said: "The new standards will contribute to realising RTA's objective of reducing customers' complaints from taxi drivers to 1 per cent per 100,000 km. The RTA has managed to reduce it from 2.7 per cent in the past to 1.4 per cent per 100,000km up to now. He added: "The new standards, which would attract highly efficient taxi drivers, underline RTA's keenness to realise its third strategic goal of 'Bringing Happiness to People.'" |
