Lavi filed a Supreme Court petition this weekend through Attorney Nati Rom and Attorney Yitzhak Bam, demanding to cancel instructions by the Binyamin region Police Chief not to take enforcement action against Palestinian vehicles without identification plates participating in agricultural activity in the Binyamin area.
"In the petition, we warned that those who approve to plow with tractors without identification plates could be held responsible for rammings and accidents caused by the tractors. And that we have feared has come to pass. It is inconceivable that the sovereign - that is, the State of Israel - cannot secure and protect from outlaws. The police must coordinate and liaise with the IDF to implement a zero-tolerance policy for vehicles without ID plates and to stop assisting offenders, even during the plowing season," the lawyers said.
