The head of the Al-Sadiqoon parliamentary bloc, Habib Al-Halawi, called today (Tuesday) on the Ministry of Interior to reconsider the file of traffic fines until the necessary infrastructure is provided, especially with the activation of the smart traffic light system at a number of intersections in the capital Baghdad.
Al-Halawi, in a press statement, called on the Ministry of Interior to reconsider the timing and rates of traffic fines without completing road infrastructure and adequate awareness of the streets.
The issue of activating the smart traffic signal system in the capital, Baghdad, sparked mixed reactions from citizens due to the absence of the infrastructure necessary for the success of the project, which they considered a new factor that would burden the citizen.
