You tested the drivers, not us, driving school tells JPJ

[superadmin]

PETALING JAYA: The road transport department (JPJ) has drawn flak for saying it will penalise driving schools for traffic offences and road accidents caused by their former students.

CT Balan, the operations director of a driving school, Safety Driving Centre, said JPJ had no right to do so since its officers were the final examiners of the students.

JPJ announced recently that it planned to suspend or revoke the permits of driving institutes from which many traffic offenders had graduated.
