Kuwaiti traffic authorities have embarked on using drones to track down road offenders, according to Al Jarida reports.
The traffic police have tested the new method over the past few days and this has proved “brilliant success” in spotting the sites of gatherings, reckless driving and violating vehicles, a traffic source told Al Jarida newspaper.
Earlier this week, the first trial of the drones took place in Al Wafra area and three sportscars were spotted. Their images were taken while performing risky stunts.
The three offenders were confronted with their images after they had denied wrongdoing, the source added.
They will be referred to the traffic court on Sunday while their vehicles have been impounded pending legal procedures. Footage of their violations will be presented as evidence to the court.
