Impact of the penalty points system on severe road traffic injuries in kuwait.

Conclusions: These findings suggest that PPS implementation in Kuwait appears to have resulted in a significant reduction in the number of RTIs in the ensuing period. Therefore, PPS seems a feasible and effective approach in reducing RTIs in Kuwait and other countries in the region, if adequately implemented. Future studies may focus on evaluating the long-term effects of PPS implementation. PMID: 23944690 [PubMed - in process]
