Transportation: Pilot Tests on Driver Compliance
The Public Transport Regulatory Authority in Jordan has implemented intensive regulatory measures on smart transportation application services, aiming to verify compliance with the approved pricing and the presence of licensed vehicles. The authority's teams will conduct actual test runs through the apps to compare the prices with the official fare, with a maximum allowable increase of 20%, and ensure that trip prices conform to the specified standards. Additionally, field campaigns will be carried out to verify vehicle and driver licensing, compare prices at different times, and legal actions will be taken against violating companies, including the confiscation of financial guarantees. The level of adherence to the pricing standards has reached approximately 80%. These measures aim to promote fair competition and protect passengers' rights, within a new system launched in 2025 that seeks to regulate the app-based transportation market and ensure compliance by companies and small operators.
