Lt. Colonel Sulaiman Al Deree, Director of the Police Follow-Up Department, said an errant motorist can join one of the said schools to benefit from the programme once a year and successful completion of the programme will deduct eight black points of the total points of a traffic offender.
He said a driver can join the programme before the black points reach the accumulative limit of 24 points.
The following category of drivers may benefit from the programme: A driver who has not yet reached the limit of 24 black points, a driver whose temporary driving licence had been withdrawn and after gathering 24 black points for the first time, known as ‘the first traffic offense’, a driver who has a permanent driving licence and had exceeded the 24 black points thrice and a truck driver who was booked for causing a serious accident, or for running a red light or for overtaking where it is prohibited.
