Motorists who fail to pay their road tolls could be left in limbo, as the government proposes denying them services like the renewal of their driver's license, vehicle transfers, annual vehicle inspections, or insurance confirmations.
The government also wants to change the law to mandate the clearance of any outstanding toll and related penalties, before getting car insurance.
The government is recommending amendments to the Insurance (Motor Vehicles Third Party Risks) Act to create a mandatory settlement of outstanding tolls and related penalties.
The Ministry argues that the decision is to enhance the efficient collection of unpaid tolls.
