"Department of Land Transport (DLT)"

The Department of Land Transport (DLT) is inviting applications from those who are interested in operating app-based ride-hailing services after the Royal Gazette website on Friday published a new set of fees for such services, DLT director-general Jirut Wisanjit said on Wednesday.

Taxi drivers who refuse passengers, as well as their respective taxi garage owners, will be subject to heavier fines under a new law created from merging and revising two previous outdated laws.

In an effort to boost road safety during Songkran, the Department of Land Transport (DLT) has started inspecting drivers and the condition of public transport vehicles at 195 transportation hubs and locations nationwide.
