Speeding fines
I read an Article in the Gulf News a few days back that there have been boxes placed randomly along SZR and moved around periodically, so people couldn't just break before a camera and then speed on. My heart stopped and I raced to the computer to check up on any fines as I feared the worst. To my first delight, there were only two fines. One which was from back in June taken by one of those mobile boxes on Al Wasl road (bastards) but under closer inspection, the second fine is from a Friday morning during Ramadan and since I don't have to do a school run, I stay in. I will have to call Dubai Police and enquire about it.
Has anyone encountered false fines and was made to pay for it? Can I request a picture? I have heard that some people are wizzards at waiving fines but all they do, is pass it on to someone else. I have meanwhile driven along the middle of SZR and spied for the boxes but couln't see any. Probably just a media gimmick to get normal people to slow down. As if other racers would give a toss about such boxes, as they don't even break for the usual cameras. |

ARE YOU SCARED? :scared: Check www.dxbtraffic.gov.ae Click on English and you should be able to find your way through until you get to the bit where you have to give info about your number plate. It is enough to just type in the number plate and colour. You could check anybodies account if you know their number plate. Just have a peak out of your window and check out your neighbours cars. Just came up with the idea actually, could be a good laugh. |
