BENTONG: The Road Transport Department (JPJ) has been asked to synchronise its list of blacklisted drivers with that of the police and Land Public Transport Commission (SPAD) to prevent errant motorists from renewing their driving licences.

Transport Minister Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai said he was aware that the JPJ could not suspend the licences of drivers blacklisted by the police because the software used by the two agencies as well as SPAD was not synchronised.
