Lifespan of taxis extended to 12 years
The Cabinet has approved extending the legal lifespan of taxis from nine to 12 years.
Deputy government spokesperson Rachada Dhnadirek said Tuesday’s Cabinet agreed to expand the period to help 80,000 taxi drivers affected by the Covid-19 pandemic.
However, vehicles in use for more than nine years must be serviced four times per year to prevent air pollution from exhaust emissions.
