Cold-hearted motorists who use up spaces specifically designated to disabled drivers could face hefty fines and have their driving licences revoked.
Under the proposed new penalties spearheaded by Southern Municipal Council chairman Abdulla Abdullatif, the current fine of BD20 to BD100, as stated in the 2014 Traffic Law, would be tripled from BD60 to BD300.
Additionally, the driver’s licence would be suspended for three months for the first offence and, if repeated, six months.
