One motorcyclist said many motorists welcome automation at the land checkpoints to help ease congestion.
JOHOR BAHRU - Malaysian motorcyclists who have been using the new MyBorderPass app to commute to Singapore on a regular basis have praised the system.
Mr Ooi said many motorists welcome automation at both land checkpoints connected to Singapore to help ease congestion, especially during peak hours in the wee hours of the morning and late evenings. “This resulted in us having to use manual counters to clear immigration, which was time-consuming,” he said, hoping that the government’s new system would not be overloaded when thousands of motorcyclists start using it during peak hours.
“I just tried registering my car number plate and the system accepted it. So I can register any vehicle to use the system,” he said, adding that sometimes facial recognition also fails to detect the face, especially when a rider wears a helmet with a visor.
