RIYADH — Saudi authorities have seized three foreign trucks and fined their operators SR10,000 each for transporting goods within the Kingdom without authorization, the Transport General Authority (TGA) said Sunday. The trucks were impounded with the support of security forces as part of an effort to enforce transport regulations. Under Saudi law, foreign trucks are not allowed to conduct domestic cargo transport without proper authorization. Penalties for repeated violations increase, with fines reaching up to SR160,000 and truck impoundment lasting up to 60 days. Authorities said they may confiscate vehicles that repeatedly violate the regulations. The TGA said it would continue monitoring compliance and taking action against violations to ensure regulatory enforcement and protect competition in the logistics sector.
