Oh, yeah.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Ministry of Interior is well under way with the planning of new traffic rules and regulations in the Kingdom. According to Saudi Gazette,\u00a0<\/em>some of the plans that might change the traffic laws you’re familiar with are…\u00a0<\/p>\n

Increasing the speed limit on expressways to 140kph<\/h3>\n

Plans to increase the speed limit to 140kph was announced on Wednesday by the leaders of the Ministry of Interior. The reconsideration of the current speed limit is due to the increase in population and current road projects that have been taking place.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This might be useful to those who travel from Riyadh to Taif’s Highway or Riyadh to Dammam. The current speed limit in highways currently is at 120kph.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
