A citizen from the city of Al-Karak in Jordan threw his private vehicle (a passenger bus) in a valley near the city of Al-Karak in protest against a traffic violation organized for him by a traffic policeman at a value of 40 dinars.

Eyewitnesses confirmed that the 38-year-old was angry for violating traffic, as he drove his vehicle to the valley north of the city of Karak and threw the vehicle there to reach the bottom of the abyssal valley, according to local media.

For his part, the media spokesman for the Public Security Directorate explained the details of the vehicle violation that was raised on social media after its driver threw it into the valley.

Stressing that the driver of the vehicle stopped it in a way that obstructed traffic and refused to move it on the pretext that he was shopping despite being asked more than once by the traffic sergeant.

When the vehicle documents were requested, it was found that the possession license had expired for more than eight months, in addition to the expiration of the driver’s driving license about a year and a half ago, and that he committed a violation of changing the color of the vehicle other than the color documented by the Licensing Department without documenting that.

The media spokesman stressed that all violations recorded against him are justified and in accordance with the provisions of the law, especially since violations cannot, under any circumstances, be overlooked. The traffic sergeant must apply the law according to his duty, indicating that the law applies to everyone without discrimination between one person and another.
