1808 juveniles were arrested, including teenagers between the ages of 13 and 16, for driving vehicles without driving license during the last 10 month, authorities informed.
The increase in number of juveniles driving on the road is a serious concern as the number in the same period before corona pandemic, ie in 2019, was only 435.
According to report, most of the arrests of teenagers were made while they were on their way to or returning from their schools, and that the majority of the arrests were made in the governorates of Jahra, Ahmadi and Farwaniya.
