Umm Al Quwain Police have announced a 50 per cent discount on traffic fines to mark the UAE's 50th anniversary. The scheme started on September 1 and ends on September 5. Traffic offences committed before August 1 are eligible for a discount. Individuals who have flouted Covid-19 safety rules, and motorists who committed serious traffic offences, such as reckless driving that endangered lives or made unlicensed modifications to a vehicle’s engine, are exempt from the scheme. Police said people can pay the discounted fines on Ministry of Interior app and other online channels.
