New fine for phone-use while driving ‘not true’
The Public Relations and Security Media Department of Ministry of Interior has denied that a new decision was issued to impose a fine of KD 250 and suspend for three months the driving licenses of those who use mobile phones while driving.
In a press statement issued by Ministry of Interior, the department affirmed that the reports circulating on social media regarding this issue are false.
