    Hello Sir/Mam,
    Last Thursday I was apprehended by the Police Officer at Al kobar Street near Ramaniyah Mall where I had commented -Driving on the Opposite Direction. The police officer he took the key and my company service vehicle and it was impounded at Aziziyah Morror (Police).

    Today October 17, 2016 We went to Tugbah Morror (Police) with our Saudi Local Officer to settle and I gave him 1000 riyals to pay my violation aside of that he told that I need to go Jail for 5 days according to him. I wanted to ask if his statement is True?

    As per List of traffic Violations and their Fines in Saudi Arabia mentioned- Driving on the opposite direction -A fine not less than five hundred riyals and not exceeding nine hundred riyals, or keep the vehicle in custody plus the fine.

    Please I need your help ..
