Recent campaigns conducted by the Security Control Department (Traffic Investigations) recorded 214 violations of traffic laws and referred 12 juveniles to the Public Prosecution for further action.

In addition to citations, the field campaigns resulted in the seizure of 21 vehicles and 11 motorcycles for violating traffic regulations.
