The Ministry of Transport (MOT) will end the year observing its so-called "7-7-7" policy, he said. "Some 80% of the incidents occurred on straight roads, with speeding the main cause," Mr Arkhom said. "Injury and death rates from public transport must be zero." The ministry will ramp up public transportation services for the expected surge of commutes, Mr Arkhom said. Public transport will service over 16 million people from Dec 28 to Jan 3, he said.
