RIYADH: More than 517 vehicles were seized on Friday in various regions as the Kingdom stepped up the campaign against vehicles parked in spaces reserved for people with disabilities.
The traffic departments were carrying out the second field operation to establish a culture of respect for the rights of people with special needs.
The traffic departments said that they would apply regulations to all violators without exception.
They also called for cooperation from the public to show respect for people with special needs by not parking in spaces reserved for them.
