The Kuwaiti Fast-Lane: Run a Red, Get Deported
The Kuwaitis have devised a novel solution to their massive immigration problem. What to do when your own citizens are just a third of the population (at best)? You are a minority in your own country, so you've got to keep the non-citizen resident majority in its place.
And the latest technique, according to Al-Arabiya, is devastatingly simple. If any resident with a prior infraction runs a traffic light, they get deported. That's right, deported. As in, kicked out of the country... for a driving infraction.
It's a brilliant two-for-one: you have an excuse to weed out any resident riff-raff and you make sure 66% of the country's drivers are extra careful on the roads.
