The fee for the online driving licence test will be lowered to RM20 from January 1, 2019. This is a RM7 reduction from the current RM27, and it follows a decision to liberalise the present system monopolised by three companies, according to transport minister Anthony Loke, reported by The Star.
“We have decided to open up the online driving test to all driving institutes ranked three stars and above who fulfil the requirements needed,” he said.
Loke said that at present, 103 examination centres under MyEG, KOMMS and Myspeed are offering the online driving test, and the new policy would not affect these centres. There are currently about 150 driving institutes of three star ranking and above, based on a 2017 survey.
“Under this new system, we expect to see some 200 examination centres set up nationwide, which will make the online driving test more accessible to the public,” he added.

+YB Loke, why dont you do ONE simple thing. Get the Road Tax Printer to PRINT BOTH sides of the road tax, that way less drivers will forget and run foul on expiry
Make it mandatory for EVERY new car to have Smart Tags pre-installed permanently at correct position. Smart Tags must not be operated by 9V batteries anymore. You have to put a stop to the nonsense that is going on at all our Toll Plazas. Drivers without Smart Tags, Smart Tags without battery, Smart Tags with insufficient balance. Malaysian toll booth its a circus …why because the previous Ministers didnt want to do the RIGHT thing but did the POPULAR thing. Allowing too much freedom hence endangering other drivers when the start backing at toll plazas. For older cars, give them ONE year grace, or get them off the road.
if the corruption rot & leakage caused by previous Govt not this worst, rakyat alredi enjoy toll-free now.
If it weren’t by a certain comeback politician, rakyat alredi enjoy toll-free now.
Good and honest Government has given us cheaper now. If last time, have to pay so much for everything. Then always ask dedak besides official fees.
I am so happy now we got clean Government.
If it was so clean, then where’s the toll abolishment that you promised?
And the Rm1.50 petrol as well?
And continuation of BR1M?
And cancellation of PTPTN loans?
And free tertiary education?
And free internet?
And cheaper grocery prices?
And more open space for free speech instead of sending their troopers to tell us fairytales such as above?
dude…u think everyone drive in KV..or toll road…u need to go outside kl la…plenty of road toll free…borneo have 0…smart tag is useless
99% agree permanently fix the smart tag… if you don’t use then … Just treat like spare tire. Even the people at Perodua are smarter than the Transport Ministry. Myvi has inbuilt…same like cars in Japan. Those who say cannot afford to get one ,then don’t drive. You are a nuisance to others … 1% is why the heck smart tag still runs on battery !! Making Energizer rich while polluting Eco
If drivers don’t run foul on expiry, then how to saman them for driving with expired road tax? He is in there to make money, not to make things easier for us.
Offering to take the test for all new drivers. Just for a small token of Rm10/test. Gerenti pass or your money back!
No wonder damm many law breaking rempits
