Zimbabwe: calls for professional driver regulation
The Drivers Association of Zimbabwe is calling on Parliament to recognize driving as a regulated profession and establish a formal professional body to oversee standards, ethics, training, and accountability within the sector. The association argues that professional regulation could help address concerns about driver competence, road safety, working conditions, and the public perception of driving as unskilled labor. The proposal envisions requirements for professional registration and continuing development, along with a regulatory structure that could establish and enforce standards of conduct.
