By Zhi Yun | China Daily | Updated: 2012-08-29 07:27

The country's top work safety watchdog is considering adopting a regulation to punish long-distance coach drivers who fail to travel prescribed routes or switch off GPS terminals, a senior official told China Daily.

Hou Jinglei, division chief of the road traffic safety department of the State Administration of Work Safety, said the move is to better regulate the use of GPS devices on long-distance vehicles and reduce traffic accidents.

The administration plans to make all long-distance buses and vehicles transporting dangerous goods install GPS systems by the end of the year. The GPS terminals will have a communication function and be connected to monitoring platforms.
