Saudi Arabia will begin automatic surveillance of seven traffic offenses on Sunday, June 4. Lt. Gen. Muhammad Al Bassami, Director General of Public Security, made the announcement.

On Monday, Al Bassami launched the electronic automation of seven traffic offences.

Driving on the sidewalks or pedestrian paths of roads where driving is prohibited; failing to use necessary lighting when driving at night or in weather conditions where visibility is poor; and failure of trucks and heavy equipment to comply with the right lane on a multi-lane road are all examples of violations.

According to the Saudi Press Agency, the automatic surveillance of violations also includes violations of traffic regulations on the road; driving a vehicle with unclear or damaged number plates; bypassing the station measuring the weights and dimensions of transport vehicles; and parking the vehicle in places not designated for the same.

These offenses will be monitored by the General Traffic Department and the Special Forces for Road Security. This is done to improve traffic control and safety while also reducing undesired conduct on public roadways inside and outside of cities throughout the Kingdom.
