After traffic law reform, accident cases in Kuwait have sharply decreased

 
 
 

The Ministry of Health has revealed a remarkable drop in ambulance reports related to traffic accidents, recording 357 fewer cases within just two months of implementing Kuwait’s new traffic law.

Ministry of Health spokesperson Dr. Abdullah Al-Sanad credited this significant improvement to a combination of Divine grace and the concerted efforts of both legislative reforms and on-ground law enforcement. According to his statement on the “X” platform, this coordinated approach has led to increased public safety and reduced emergency response strain.

Dr. Al-Sanad expressed optimism that this downward trend in traffic-related emergencies would continue as authorities maintain strict enforcement of the updated traffic regulations. The decline is seen as a positive outcome of Kuwait’s broader efforts to improve road safety, reduce accident rates, and enhance emergency response efficiency.

This announcement follows recent nationwide traffic safety campaigns, including stricter penalties for violations, increased use of surveillance technologies, and road safety awareness programs. These initiatives have collectively aimed to address high accident rates and improve driving culture across the country.

The drop in ambulance reports not only highlights the success of the new legal framework but also reflects the government’s ongoing commitment to safeguarding public health and road safety. Kuwaiti authorities are expected to continue refining and enforcing policies that prioritize citizen well-being and efficient emergency services.
