Oman raises age limit for driving licence
- Oman: Wednesday, January 02 - 2013 at 03:28
The Royal Oman Police (ROP) has said the age limit for nationals seeking driving licence has been raised from 17 to 18, as part of new measures taken to crack down on traffic rule violators and for making Omani roads safer for motorists, Times of Oman has reported. Apart from raising the age bar, the ROP has also incorporated some strict rules. "Now, applicants will be provided only a temporary licence during the first year. They will have to undergo training regularly and their driving skills will be monitored," the ROP said. In 2012, three million traffic violation tickets were issued across the sultanate, up 22% over the previous year, it said.
