Conclusion
All the credit for such a unique initiative goes to the Crown Prince of Fujairah Sheikh Mohammed Bin Hamad Bin Mohammed Al Sharqi. Accordingly, this campaign would be the best opportunity for all the traffic violators, especially those who have piled up a good number of fines that have to be cleared can clear all the records at a lower cost.
This new move of reducing the traffic fines to 50% is to reduce the financial burdens of the people and provide a very good opportunity for all the drivers who are earlier booked for violating the traffic rules. These drivers can pay all the fines at a very low cost and clear all the pending records. Introduction of such schemes can make the public happier.
The traffic fines that are accumulated because of dangerous driving are excluded from the discount. These offences mainly include driving a heavy truck in a hazardous way, driving a noisy vehicle, escaping from traffic police and driving a vehicle in such a way to cause grave risk to the road users. The drivers who are included in any of the above fines are supposed to pay all the fines without any discount.
The police said, ”All the drivers are urged to drive the vehicles following the rules and regulations strictly for their safety as well as everyone’s safety”. This can avoid the loss of life as well as the loss of property.
