Director-General of Traffic Brigadier Abdulrahman bin Abdulwahab Al Khalifa hailed the instructions of His Excellency Interior Minister Shaikh Rashid bin Abdulrahman Al Khalifa for developing the traffic system and raising the traffic safety rates for road users through implementing rules and regulations to address violations and wrong behaviours that could endanger the lives of road users and affect properties.
The Director-General clarified that order No. 165 of 2023 amending some provisions of order No. 68 of 2016 regarding cases and conditions of vehicles’ seizure, could allow the violated vehicles to be seized for a minimum of 60 days instead of 30 days. The amendment also added two new violations, which prohibit any addition to the vehicle that would make annoying noises, and prevent stunt driving and endangering the lives of road users.
