Kyrgyzstan makes repeat drug-driving a crime

A road-safety law signed on 5 June 2026 made a second impaired-driving offence within a year criminal, punishable by a fine of 100,000–150,000 som or up to one year in prison, with a licence ban. First offences carry an 80,000 som fine and a two-year ban; refusing a medical test carries 100,000 som and a three-year ban.[1][2]
