Marat Kojaev
Marat Kojaev is a member of the Senate in Kazakhstan who recently proposed stricter penalties for habitual traffic offenders. His initiative comes in response to a significant increase in traffic violations in Almaty, where over 4.2 million violations were recorded in 2024 alone. Kojaev's concerns focus on the inadequacy of the current punishment system, particularly how habitual offenders can exploit the existing rules, such as the 50% discount on fines, to continue their reckless driving without facing serious consequences. He advocates for reforms that would include a point system for violations and mandatory retesting for drivers with multiple infractions.
