Dh600 fine, 6 black points for overtaking on hard-shoulder

series of traffic alerts and advice have been issued this morning by the Dubai Police and the RTA.

While most of them urge motorists to follow rules, drive safely and gave way to ambulances, one particular reminder stands out.

It is a tweet that reminds all motorists that the fine for overtaking on the hard-shoulder in Dubai is Dh600 and six black points.

Dubai Police tweeted this pic informing all motorists of the penalties for breaking the hard shoulder rule.


Hi-vis jackets

Police in Kalba, meanwhile, have warned motorcycle users and bicyclists that their vehicles will be confiscated if they do not meet the road-worthiness rules.

Cyclists are supposed to use hi-visibility jackets.

Bikers reminded to ride safe

In a separate event the Traffic and Patrols Directorate at Abu Dhabi Police held a lecture to warn against the dangers of motorbikes.

The lecture was organised by the Public Relations Branch at the Western Region’s Traffic and Patrols Section, in cooperation with the Social Development Foundation in Ghayathi.
