Fourteen drivers have been caught by the Land Transport Authority in an operation from Aug 27 to Aug 30 at Changi Airport for providing illegal chauffeur services.

Earlier on Aug 7, the agency also caught four drivers for providing illegal cross-border rides between Singapore and Malaysia, and seized their Malaysia-registered vehicles. Checks by ST on Aug 8 found that several Facebook pages, Telegram groups, websites and more than 20 listings on e-commerce platform Carousell were offering cross-border chauffeur services targeting travellers from Singapore.

The National Private Hire Vehicles Association said on Facebook on Aug 30 that it has been working with LTA on the crackdown and is “seeing positive steps” in tackling Malaysian point-to-point services offered by illegal drivers at the airport.
