Thanks to a special initiative by the Ras Al Khaimah Police, you no longer have to wait for special announcements from the government for a discount on traffic fines.
All you need to do now is to pay the fine early, and get a 50 per cent discount.
In an initiative themed 'Radar' by the RAK Police, drivers will be entitled to a 50 per cent discount on radar-based fines if the amount is paid within 50 days of the violation, an official source said.
"Should the driver pay the fine on the 51st day of being caught by any of the fixed or mobile speed cameras on the roads and highways of the northern emirate, he would be entitled to a smaller discount, of 30 per cent."
"There is also a time limit to enjoy the 30 per cent discount, which is from the 51st day to the 80th day of being booked."
Failing to pay the fine before the 81st day means that the erring driver caught by any of the radars here shall be entitled to no discount at all, he underlined. "The move will make drivers more alert and observant to traffic regulations."
However, only the drivers caught by RAK radars on the emirate's roads would be eligible for the discount.
All fines imposed due to other traffic violations, particularly those posing a risk to the life of a road user, or vehicle impoundment, are excluded, he clarified. "Driving at more than 160km/ph, jumping red signal, racing, over tinting car windows, and alike, are not included in the discount."
