Non-Saudi drivers face deportation
Reckless non-Saudi drivers will be deported from the Kingdom if they repeatedly commit traffic offences.
Under new laws being introduced, drivers that receive 18 points three times on their licenses during their stay in the Kingdom will have their residency visas cancelled and face deportation.
According to Arabic newspaper Al Madina, the new laws will soon be introduced with the Kingdom hoping to encourage positive driving by dropping all previous penalty points if a driver spends one year without any offence.
Everybody with a valid Saudi driving licence will be credited with two points for safe driving if he has no offence during one Hijri year.
Saudi Drivers who reach 24 points in one Hirji year will also face driving bans up to a year.
