Driving Penalty Amendments

The "Driving Penalty Amendments" bill aims to revise penalties related to driving offenses. It includes provisions to increase fines, license suspension periods, and penalties for certain violations such as reckless driving or driving under the influence. The bill also proposes stricter enforcement measures to improve road safety and deter dangerous driving behaviors. If enacted, this legislation could lead to harsher consequences for traffic violations and potentially reduce traffic-related accidents and fatalities.
