Proposed Law: Kvish 6 Traffic Discount

Despite a similar law being proposed in the past, and rejected, MKs Ahmed Tibi (UAL) and Eitan Cabel (Hamachane Hatzioni) are proposing a law that would require the Kvish 6 operators to not charge drivers for using the road in situations that they needed to sit an unusually long time in traffic jams.
According to Tibi and Cabel, drivers on those situations are not getting the savings in time that they were paying for, and it is in opposition to the purpose of the road itself and the laws governing it
In the past a similar proposal was opposed by the Minister of Transportation, as giving such deductions would require the State to pay the operator more and it would go against the operator contract with the State.

I dont know why they expect different results with this proposal, seeing that nothing has been substantially changed - similar proposal, same Transportation Minister and same governing contract. And the proposal is not even from coalition MKs, but from Opposition MKs... so while it sounds good from the perspective of a consumer, I don't expect it to pass.
