Sukilala, in some signal crossing roads there is a yellow block... the reason the put this is because some people here ( of course not ad4x4 people ) do cross the green light even when there is a jam traffic and they wait in the middle blocking the other directions.. you should proceed on a green light signal only when way is clear .

JAX.. this file is NOT for ad4x4 members .. we are good behaving citizens dear ..

Gotta love #40........now where did I leave the key to my electric golf buggy?????

Does anyone knows if the traffic policemen have a quota for tickets?
like they have to finish a book or two each month?

last week i paid like 3500aed for parking tickets, where I live in tourist club area is really crazy, and sometimes all the cars at night only they park in a way to block eachother, be we all know eachother and we dont mind as we leave our phone numbers.
but from time to time they come and put tickets on all the cars randomly

Any idea?

braveheart .. my cousin used to work in the sharjah municipality as a 'paid parking' monitor .. they ask them to finish atleast 1 book a week

as for the police .. i think they get a commition if they give so many fines in a set period of time (one month?)

so good luck mate, the tourist club area sucks when it comes to parking and until they decide its time to build parking buildings for you guys, you'll just have to face those tickets

I think it is interesting that driving a vehicle without licence plate is twice as many points as killing someone.

Back home in Sweden you will lose your driving licence if you drive more than 30 km/h above speed limit on a highway. When it is 30 km/h (outside schools etc) you will lose it exceeding more than 10 km/h.
As long as you dont exceed with more than 60 km/h you dont get any points at all.
I am pretty sure that if you keep the speed limits you will get a parking fine

Just to tell you a story from Finland. They have their speeding ticket fines based on last years income. Two years ago they caught one guy who sold his company the year before and had a huge income that year. He was driving 25 km/h above speedlimit and had to pay 130 000 AED in fine

I like them all... especially 54 & 78 We have to observe how it will be implemented.

:hat:

Walid if u move your car before 6 am u ll be safe, in Ramadan you are lucky have Suhor and move your car, the problem with the ppl blocking some other car either he doesn't leave phone no or never answer it
