The Police announced an awareness week and stricter checks on distracted driving, particularly the use of mobile phones while driving, to reduce serious and fatal injuries in road traffic collisions and raise awareness among drivers. Nationwide traffic checks will take place from June 2 to June 9, 2024. Driver distraction is a significant factor in road accidents, limiting reaction time in emergencies.

Zero tolerance will be enforced for traffic violations that contribute to fatal and serious accidents.
