The Speech of His Excellency the Undersecretary of Ministry of Interior The President of the Trac Higher Council

In spite of the great efforts granted by the ministry in the traffic security field, and the noticeable positive results it reached, the reality still confirms on the need to exert more work and efforts in order to limit the violations and traffic accidents, which is a duty that needs all the governmental and non-governmental authorities to participate including different institutions like the media and the general assemblies, beside the role of the family, and that's because the traffic issue concerns the whole society with its social, cultural, educational and informational effects, as from here, the effective dealings with it is achieved only by co-operation. In the occasion of the (first) issue "special booklet on traffic violations which was issued by the Traffic Higher Council that deals with the traffic problem with all its dimensions". I set this problem in front of the society and its institutions and appeal to everyone to rise their responsibilities to ensure security and traffic safety, and to avoid accidents and damages to our human riches that is considered the basic pillar for development and prosperity. I direct my call specially for the specialized organizations to concentrate their efforts to keep the traffic movement flowing and to limit violations and accidents and to work on keeping security, traffic safety and co-operation with the specialized organizations in the state and that is to set appropriate practical solutions to this crisis, since traffic accidents are setting up a great economic burden. We'd like to take this opportunity to show the Traffic Higher Council's appreciation to all governmental and non-governemtnal authorities and specialized institutions that support the council's activities to limit traffic accidents starting off the complete belief that the responsibility is shared and the aim is one. Undersecretary of Ministry of Interior President of the Trac Higher Council

Lt.Gen./Nsser Al-Othman

Preface Breaking laws or rules is a rejected matter which leads to a chaos and causing damage to others. People are different in their nature, behaviour and their rasing, so they differ by the degree of following laws and rules. However, to stop people from breaking laws and rules, some different penalties are made to protect people and saves their money. The traffic rules and laws are the most adherence rules for people's life for its direct relation to the citizens safety during his moving on the road whether he was walking or riding or driving. The Kuwaiti project gives special care in which it puts conditions and restrictions which the drivers should stick to during their driving to avoid traffic accident. As for the fines and its penalties which comes with traffic law to punish the violators and it aims to determent people from breaking these laws and save themselves and their properties. However, the Higher Traffic Council issued a traffic fines manual in the reach of everyone so they have good look at sorts of fines and its penalties and then obligate the directions and act with it to avoid breaking rules and directions.

Traffic Fines: - The definition of traffic fine: it is any behaviour or act that should not be done which is done by the vehicle's driver or the one who sits next to him or walking considered to be a traffic rules and structures violation.

Type of traffic Fines: 1 - Direct Fines: which is given in the presence of the violator and his signature or his refusal to sign on the fine after record all the fundamental data of the fine. 2 - Indirect Fines: which is the violator is not presented when the fine is recorded..

Conclusion In the desire of the Higher Traffic Council to create a refined and secured traffic behaviour and taking all the plans and programs and procedures needed to spread out the traffic awareness between people in the community to minimize violation, and traffic accidents to secure people and their properties and the country security and its human and economical elements, in order to keep everybody in a safe life and quit and flexible traffic movement on public streets. Official studies and statistics showed that the most important element causing the traffic jam is ignoring traffic regulations and special rules and the consequence of that is violations and traffic accidents that leads to abstract the traffic movement and to increase the traffic suffocation, in addition to other damages. So, dear user of the street, we put this booklet in your hand to help you to be easily acquainted of all the traffic violations and their penalties. We tried in this booklet to gather and organize all the traffic violations that was mentioned in the traffic law and decisions, and the regulations execution in a very easy way to enable you, the street user, to have good knowledge and understanding of it, then work hard to bond in following the traffic rules and instructions and setting up co-operation and friendship connection with the traffic man, as he is not your opponent, but, he is working for you and your safety. Let's co-operate all together, Department and people to solve the traffic problem that became continuous anxiety that its negative consequences and effects touch all the people in our country.

Permanent Secretary of the Higher Traffic Council.
