According to representatives of the Dubai police, 500 dirhams will be levied on violators for ignoring the prohibition signal, and another 200 for non-compliance with the high-speed regime, which is almost always violated by those who try to cross the intersection at the last moment.
In confirmation of the seriousness of intentions, the Dubai police are starting to install 21 new radars at intersections today. After that, the total number of unemotional road "cyclops" (as motorists call them) in Dubai will reach 154 units. Particularly stringent measures will be taken in relation to truck drivers, because of which dozens of fatal accidents are recorded during the year. Truck drivers driving a red light will be stripped of their driver’s license.
Also, the Dubai police are calling to report trucks that violate parking rules to the operations department by phone 999 or to the “We Are All Police” service by phone 800 4353.
