    Traffic rules regarding strengthening penalties for bicycles using smartphones and being drunk driving

    Traffic rules will change from November 1, 2024.

    Due to the enforcement of the revised Road Traffic Act, new penalties will be imposed on bicycle riders from November 1, 2024.


    Key points of the revised Road Traffic Act

    Using a smartphone while driving
