No cash zone: It was also announced that payment can only be made through point-of-sale machines (online)

The new form of transportations will be driven by women for women (and family members), effective from December 15.

The rules of transporting have also been stated by the PTA, in an effort to maintain the safety of future passengers

Rules such as no smoking, maintaining the cleanliness of the vehicle and not accepting customers if the number of passengers exceed the seats available were one of the main components of the regulations.
