Compared with the framework unveiled in July, the bill eases the age limit on ride-hailing vehicles but stipulates that only the registered owner may drive them. The change may deter illegal, unlicensed drivers, yet it also curtails flexibility: cars cannot be fully utilised, and supply will shrink. With demand for ride-hailing running high, the authorities should take a more lenient approach to licensing.
