Strict traffic checking helps in reducing traffic accidents
Monday, March 21, 2016
The new amendment which was issued through a ministerial decree which calls for withdrawal of driving licence and gives right for the General Traffic Department to impound the vehicle for two months from motorists who are careless and do not comply with safety regulations has greatly contributed to the reduction in traffic accidents, reports Al-Anba daily quoting a security source.
One of the serious violations committed by the motorists is the use of cell phone while driving. The daily added, if a person is caught speaking on the phone while driving he/she will be charged with using the phone while driving which is a violation and not paying attention to the road. In this event the traffic police have been given the authority to confiscate the licence and impound the vehicle for two months.
