LTFRB temporarily suspends inDrive franchise

MANILA: The Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) has temporarily suspended the franchise of inDrive.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Why did the LTFRB suspend inDrive's franchise?

    inDrive's franchise was temporarily suspended as it needs to comply with the MC 2019-036: Fare Rates For Transportation Network Vehicle Services.
  • How many days does inDrive have to present a proof of compliance?

    According to LTFRB, inDrive only have 15 days to comply.
  • Per the agency, the operations of RL Soft Corporation was postponed as the ride hailing company needs to comply with the MC 2019-036: Fare Rates For Transportation Network Vehicle Services.

    The said suspension — LTFRB pointed out — was a response to alleged violations concerning the haggling of fares, a clear breach of the terms and conditions outlined in its accreditation as a Transportation Network Company.

    “The LTFRB remains committed to ensuring the safety and fair practices within the transportation industry. Haggling of fares not only goes against the principles of transparency but also jeopardizes the welfare of both passengers and drivers. We take these allegations seriously and are conducting a thorough investigation to determine the extent of the violation,” the land transport franchise bureau wrote in a press statement.

    “We remind all Transportation Network Companies that adherence to the terms and conditions of accreditation is essential to maintaining the integrity of our public transportation system. The LTFRB will continue to enforce policies that prioritize the safety, fairness, and efficiency of transportation services for the benefit of the commuting public,” it added.

    The suspension of inDrive’s operation started on Tuesday, January 23. The company has only 15 days to comply and present proof of compliance with said ruling.
