Kuwait will impose a fine of 500 dinars (Dh5,958) and a jail term of up to six months on those who leave children under the age of 10 unattended in parked vehicles. Brigadier Mohammed Al Subhan, head of the Unified Gulf Traffic Week 2025 Committee, announced that leaving a child under 10 alone in a parked vehicle is now classified as a traffic violation. The driver will be held accountable if harm comes to the child, as per the Child Protection Law. Penalties for this offence include up to six months in prison, a fine of 500 dinars, or both. He also emphasised that children under 10 must sit in the back seat and be properly secured. While traffic officers can directly issue such violations, AI cameras are now capable of detecting seatbelt violations. All offenses are processed electronically and sent to violators via the “Sahel” app.
