Unlicensed Delivery Drivers On Our Roads: Why Are They On The Rise? | Talking Point | Full Episode

[@koruspring1519]

I'm taking driving classes now at Ubi and I can share it's horrible. A combination of poor customer service, holier-than-you complex instructor uncles, and outdated IT kill all the joy in learning. Government shouldn't have killed the private driving instructor program. We need more competition in this sector!

[@markg6841]

so after government removed the private instructors.... the driving standard sank???

[@JojoJoget]

Tbh the standard wasn’t that good to begin with

[@lamedada]

There are reasons why instructors are like that. Always serious. I tend to love the variety of instructors. Not all are bad. In fact I don't feel like I learn much from those quiet nice instructors. Some pretends to be bad and fierce because on the normal road outside, not all the time you get bed of roses they say. You may even have a bad day but that does not mean your driving has to be shitty. It was really a good practice when I hate hate the instructor...🤣🤣

Aiyo simple answer la. All these delivery companies wants to cut cost. Unlicensed people will accept the lower than market price and won't ask questions nor give the delivery company much trouble because they know what they are doing is illegal. Consumers also don't want to pay for higher delivery fees so the delivery companies kind of have no choice or they will go bankrupt. All willing accomplices. Edit: There will be no manpower shortage. There is a pay expectation mismatch.

Consumers want FREE delivery on everything they buy. And maximum they will pay for delivery is $1-2.

[@freescoring]

Yes, what is not covered is why these companies are willing to go so low in terms of prices? Does the platforms have monopoly like presence that they set the prices and delivery companies can't negotiate

[@mikethm1974]

Yup the govt shouldn't review the quota. These logistics companies and their management are simply greedy and want the biggest possible chunk of the profits for themselves. Always the rubbish complain about no manpower when they want to pay peanuts. No or lax quotas and Singaporeans' wages will fall.

The rise of unlicensed delivery drivers is definitely a cause for concern, but it also highlights the growing demand for home delivery services in Singapore. 🇸🇬 While addressing road safety is essential, this also reminds us of the importance of supporting local small businesses that prioritize proper practices and community safety. Whether it’s a family-run store offering delivery or a startup focused on ethical logistics, backing responsible businesses helps create a safer, more resilient Singapore.

This is quite a complex problem, big companies like J&T and Ninjavan are losing millions a month trying to outcompete one another to monopolise, they are just burning investor money to gain market share, nothing wrong as it is a free market. However, the unfortunate side effect is the sub contractors who are squeezed by the big guys (who are trying to cut losses) and the only way for the smaller guys to survive is to hire these illegal workers as they do the same job for cheaper. One way to stop this is to raise delivery prices across all platforms. But how many of us are ready to pay more? Another way is to allow work permits for the logistics industry. But what’s to stop yet another unicorn to come and spoil the market all over again?

[@howardtjh5082]

The problem is.. big delivery companies getting contracts with logistics company for a lower cost for each parcel/delivery items, which affects other courier service companies and drivers. Big companies hire illegal workers so to enable themselves to earn and dominate, and forcing delivery drivers to complete an unrealistic amount of drops in a short given timing. Other delivery drivers due to the competitive rates, are also force to work longer hours or rush and drive dangerously just to be on time. Because of the demand, you will also see all the vans having their vehicle spaces fill all the way up, cannot even see the rear window. It is a tough job and continue to be dangerous if no authorities stepping up to take action to solve these issues.

[@farrahkong1998]

We engaged a lalamover last year to move a designer tempered glass table. He did not fasten the 100kg table which tipped over at a road hump. It could have killed the driver behind if there was one. We filed a report to take him to court but he failed to turn up and there was no further investigation. Why is there no regulation for these movers? He used a Chinese name, Ang Tiam Hock on his LLM account but was a foreign worker from India. He said Ang was his boss and sent him and we thought this was a normal practice on LLM. Not only was this dangerous for other road users, it is definitely unsafe to allow unverified people to take stuff from our home who knows what might happen.

MOM guy is your typical read from script scholar with no idea of reality. I buy from Shopee quite often & so far only once the seller had option to collect from a Buzz store. Which BTW was an epic failure as Buzz supposedly turned away the courier & Shopee had to arrange a doorstep delivery on another date. 🙄 And it was a small item not something space consuming. None of the other sellers had the option of Buzz or to collect from locker. TBH i prefer locker as when they leave at doorstep, 90% of the time they don’t ring the bell. And if its an expensive item I worry it gets stolen. So why doesn’t MOM scholar ask all these sellers why all of them or 90% of them don’t provide the option to collect from locker? 🙄 Easy to talk about embracing technology & work place redesign but do your homework first & ask sellers why most of them don’t offer locker option.

And MOM, how many singaporeans want to be a driver or working in the logistics industry. How are the machines and automation going to help last mile delivery, drone deliveries? Can't even fly a drone. Lastly, singaporeans, as consumers, we are not the most accomodating, we only want it faster and cheaper.

[@PsionStar]

​@mikethm1974 make the pay attractive? Then who is going to absorb the increased cost? No business will want to run a non profitable business. So the cost will go to consumers. Then, are the consumers willing to pay more for delivery fees? I'm not saying that I advocate low wage / unlicensed drivers. But things are what it is because sometimes, there is no choice.

[@mikethm1974]

@@PsionStar but you are advocating low wage. pay singaporeans well enough and companies are allowed by quota system to employ foreign workers, that's how it works. who is going to absorb increased cost, the customer of course. if customers are expected to absorb the cost of material, infrastructure, energy etc etc, why are they not expected to absorb the cost of decent wages for singaporeans? singaporeans are lowest on your priority unless it is you isn't it? you got complain to your boss that your salary is too high?

pickup lockers, they are not always available as an option for delivery. is it due to all lockers at a location being full? capacity for more parcels is needed and another option would be to implement a system to incentivize addressees to pick up their parcels in a timely manner, thereby freeing up locker space for more parcels to be deposited.

Greetings from Ireland o/ I was taking my Initial Basic Training, required to be allowed to ride a motorbike on Irish roads. We were talking a break when a rider came into the car park on his Moped with a delivery box on the back. He wanted to know about how to go about taking the IBT. Turns out he didn't have a learner permit nor had he ever taken the IBT, meaning it was illegal for him to be on the road as you need a learner permit and an IBT certificate of completion. After he got his info he went right back to his delivery work. As he rode out of the car park and onto the main road he was all over the place. I turned to my instructor and said, "he's literally doing everything you told us not to do on a bike" Only thing he did right was wearing a Helmet. From then on I am very wary of such riders in case they don't know the rules of the road.

[@FatherSurya]

Big Companies compete with each other by lowering the price and customer are not willing or don't want to pay more for delivery..Base on what he say 150 parcel cleared within 4 to 5hrs, any experienced delivery driver knows which company he work for and how much is being paid per parcel. The lowest i heard before a driver earned per parcel is ard 70cent to $1.20 for 1 of the biggest e-commerce company in Singapore. Easy to say the higher the volume you deliver in a small area the lower the price per parcel. On top of that the company will impose penalty and the penalties is between $50 and can up to above $200-$300 depending on what the customer complain. Some customer purposely report missing item just to get the item for free

[@stealthguardian]

Our manpower challenges are longstanding and complex. MOM is aware that many roles traditionally filled by foreigners are unappealing to locals. In fact, ask agency officials if they'd want their own children to take on these jobs - the answer is likely no. Reducing foreign worker quotas may seem like a solution to create jobs for locals, but it only compounds the problem. While businesses are open to transformation, automation isn't feasible for every job. If SMEs has these budgets to resolved manpower issues, they would probably retired or invest the money elsewhere. The reality is that manpower shortages in logistics, F&B, and service sectors will persist. If left unaddressed, this will trigger a domino effect, ultimately leading to substantial increases in labor costs across all sectors.

[@leestefan2999]

I think to tackle the entire issue of manpower, the contractors will have to be bold enough to negotiate a fairer rate with the big logistics companies who often are the ones that call the shot. Back in 2014, E-commerce platforms and big logistics companies' parcel rate to contractors on the norm were about $3-4 per parcel, or worse, per address for some. So when it reached the subcontractors, it's usually offered at $1.5-3, a driver handles about 70 locations in a single 12hrs run. Sure there were some as high as $15 for bulky or heavy item, but there weren't much of these to form a non negligible ratio to the overall earning. That was a decade ago. With inflation taken into consideration, if today's subcontractors are still earning the same rate or even less, don't you think something is very wrong up the line? In employment, everyone wants a salary raise annually. Your bus fares get adjusted upwards annually. Even your CPF minimum sum goes upwards annually. So these drivers still earn the same $200 per day in 2025 or in the video's case, $150 which seems to be worse off than a decade ago? It doesn't make sense. This, in my opinion, is exploitation. I hope contractors would really sit down and calculate what is the minimum sum required for living to self reflect on their subcontractors' conditions before accepting a lowballing deal. When you are able to put yourself in their shoes, I believe you'll be able to understand why many of them ran away. Not to mention, most of the subcontractors are mostly bearing their own van cost as per age-old practice. How much do you think the subcontractors are left with after deducting vehicle related expenses? Not forgetting that even rental and gas go up. Inflation affects everything across board, doesn't make sense for earnings in any profession to stay stagnant for more than a decade. Somewhere along the line, we have courier platforms. From my observations, their rates also nearly stayed the same if not cheaper for bigger heavier stuff. Most of them did minor raise to the more common smaller items. But these are different services altogether. While the former consolidates pick ups to a singular point at a certain warehouse, the latter functions more similarly to a taxi, point A to point B most of the time. If businesses and contractors chose to ignore inflation and retain the same average payout or even lesser to the ones running the grounds over a long period of time, is it such rocket science to decipher why no one wants to be in those exploited positions? Every profession is respectable, but can those people at the bottom truly feed their families or even themselves if their earnings remained stagnant throughout the years? I'd say if you want to see changes, improve recruitment rate amd job sustainability... then please walk the talk.
