The General Traffic Department has launched intensive field campaigns across various governorates to address traffic violations in front of hospitals, targeting vehicles that breach parking regulations.

The campaigns focused on prohibited and random parking violations that obstruct traffic flow, hinder emergency vehicles from reaching hospitals, and inconvenience visitors by blocking entrances, exits, and designated passageways — actions that clearly violate traffic laws.

As a result, several citations were issued, and a number of vehicles were impounded in accordance with Article 207 of the Executive Regulations of the Traffic Law, which allows for the seizure of vehicles causing traffic obstruction for up to two months.

The General Traffic Department affirmed that these campaigns will continue daily and intensively across all governorates as part of a comprehensive plan to enhance traffic discipline and ensure smooth traffic flow around hospitals. It also urged drivers to comply with parking regulations and use only designated spaces to safeguard public safety and convenience.

The Ministry of Interior reiterated its firm commitment to enforcing the law without exception, ensuring the safety of all road users, and promoting greater traffic awareness among all members of society.
