A fine of 150 dinars is imposed for reckless driving and illegal racing
The Ministry of Interior has issued a stern warning against unauthorized street racing and reckless driving on public roads. Individuals engaging in such activities without proper permits, violating permit conditions, or assembling vehicles for dangerous use will now face severe penalties.
Starting April 22, those caught participating in illegal motor vehicle races or reckless driving will be fined 150 dinars if a settlement order is approved. If the case proceeds to court, offenders may face imprisonment ranging from one to three years, fines between 600 and 1,000 dinars, or both.
To ensure public compliance, the General Department of Public Relations and Security Media has launched an awareness campaign. Informational brochures detailing the new traffic regulations will be distributed in multiple languages.
A security source revealed that in the coming days, the Ministry of Interior will systematically publish details of all traffic violations, listing each offense along with its corresponding fine. This initiative aims to enhance road safety and reinforce adherence to traffic laws to reduce accidents.
