Fwd: Multiple Traffic Violations Caught on Camera
TDT | Manama Reckless behavior, viral videos, and urgent legal reform Bahrain takes bold steps to restore order on its roads A wave of dangerous driving incidents in Bahrain over just 48 hours has sparked national concern, prompting swift legal action and renewed calls for stricter traffic laws. The General Directorate of Traffic confirmed multiple arrests and investigations following a string of violations that were either caught on surveillance or went viral on social media. Wrong-Way Crashes On June 4, a 31-year-old man was arrested in Sanad after a social media video showed him recklessly driving the wrong way on National Charter Road. The stunt endangered countless drivers, but traffic authorities acted quickly to identify and detain him and legal action is underway. Just two days earlier, on June 2, a 29-year-old Bahraini driver was involved in a shocking accident on Shaikh Isa Bin Salman Highway, heading toward King Fahd Causeway, driving against traffic. The crash, captured on CCTV, showed the vehicle colliding with several others. The driver and several victims sustained serious injuries. Emergency teams responded swiftly, and legal steps were taken immediately. Car Door Incident on Janabiya Road Another widely shared video showed a passenger opening a car door while the vehicle was moving along Janabiya Road. The Traffic Directorate confirmed the car had Gulf plates and that the act was the result of a personal dispute inside the vehicle. The incident raised alarm about road safety, and legal procedures were promptly carried out. Red Light Violations In a separate case, two drivers—a truck driver and a private vehicle operator—were arrested after being caught on camera running a red light on Budaiya Road, recklessly risking the safety of other road users. Traffic authorities confirmed that both individuals were dealt with in accordance with the law. sds Saar Tragedy The heightened concern comes in the wake of a devastating tragedy last week in Saar, where a speeding car veered into oncoming traffic and collided head-on with a Bahraini couple's vehicle. The couple, aged 40 and 36, tragically lost their lives, while their three children—ages 12, 9, and 7—suffered serious injuries and remain in hospital care. According to traffic authorities, the crash was caused by reckless driving and excessive speed. The incident shook the nation and pushed the government into immediate action. Cabinet Responds In a weekly session chaired by His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, the Crown Prince and Prime Minister, the Cabinet reviewed urgent legislative amendments to Bahrain's traffic laws. The proposed changes, presented by the Minister of Interior, include harsher penalties, increased fines, and stricter sentencing for violations that cause injury or death. The reforms also aim to address dangerous driving behaviors such as wrong-way driving, red light violations, and high-speed stunts—reinforcing the government's firm stance on protecting public safety. Several Members of Parliament are now advocating for mandatory dash cameras in all vehicles to deter reckless behavior and aid investigations. Meanwhile, the General Directorate of Traffic continues to emphasize that road safety is a shared responsibility, warning that reckless driving will be met with zero tolerance.
