Penalty for taking the wrong road? Officially, there is “no set punishment for this offense,” though incarceration followed by a large fine and expulsion are not uncommon. [Continue]

I have been stopped on the road entering Mecca and turned around, largely because the Saudi cop was up to his eyeballs in screwed up traffic. There is a traditional penalty for non muslims entering Mecca - the cutting off of the evil doers legs. Point being preventing him from traveling to Mecca again. I understand this is no longer applied, though it could be, as it's still 'on the books' or, in the case of sharia law 'in the book'.
