1․ The competent department shall, upon the commission of a violation that endangers public safety for the second time within a year from the date of the commission of the first violation, impose a fine on the violator at its maximum limit. In the event that it is committed for the third time during the same year, the violator must be referred to the competent court—in accordance with the legal procedures—to consider the application of the imprisonment punishment against him for a period not exceeding one year, unless the court decides to double the fine prescribed for the violation in the second time. The regulation must specify the violations that endanger public safety and the procedures for referring the violator to the court.

2․ The Ministry of Interior may, if a final judgment is issued to convict a non-Saudi of committing any of the violations that endanger public safety, deport him from the Kingdom and prevent him from entering it, in accordance with the controls set by the ministry in coordination with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Justice, and the Public Prosecution. The regulation must specify the categories excluded from the application of this paragraph.
