Vehicle requirements
To apply to be a DART driver in Brunei, there are several vehicle requirements that must be met. Firstly, the vehicle must be less than 10 years old from the date of its first registration. This is a requirement for drivers signing up to use the DART app. However, if your car is older than 10 years, it may still be accepted after an inspection by DART. If your vehicle is deemed to be up to their standards and serviceable, you will be allowed to proceed with your application.
Additionally, you will need to have a valid Class 3 license and your vehicle must have the necessary insurance coverage. This includes a comprehensive insurance policy and Passenger Liability insurance, which can be purchased from your insurance company. It is also mandatory to have a fire extinguisher, window breaker, and first-aid kit in your vehicle. These items can be purchased from various home appliance and health stores.
Furthermore, if you do not own the vehicle, you will need to obtain a letter of consent from the owner before you can use it for DART. This applies even if you have a valid driver's license.
