A new legislative measure introduces significant consequences for drivers who defy an upcoming ban, with violations potentially resulting in heavy fines, short-term imprisonment, or combined penalties. The proposed law aims to enforce stricter compliance by imposing both financial and legal repercussions for those who disregard the restrictions. Authorities emphasize the severity of the penalties to deter non-compliance and ensure public safety. Details on enforcement timelines and specific conditions remain under discussion.
The bill includes steep penalties for any drivers who continue operating after the ban takes effect, including hundreds of dollars in potential fines, up to 15 days in jail, or both.
