KONTAN.CO.ID - BANGKOK. Thailand has drafted guidelines to regulate ride-hailing companies and aims to legalise the services by March 2020, the transport ministry said on Friday. Ride-sharing services exist in a legal gray area in Thailand, with police routinely stopping and fining drivers because they are not properly registered. The guidelines require private vehicles to be registered and equipped with a GPS system, the transport ministry said in a statement. Drivers will need a public driver's license.
