The Kuwaiti Ministry of Interior announced the referral of a taxi to traffic detention, due to its driver placing posters that violate traffic laws on the vehicle.
The ministry’s security media said on Twitter that “the owner of the company and the driver of the vehicle are being summoned in order to take the necessary legal measures against them.”
