Abu Dhabi Introduces New Fine for Violating Minimum Speed Limit in Fast Lane

13 May 2023

Abu Dhabi has always been at the forefront of introducing new and innovative measures to ensure road safety. In the latest move, the Emirate has announced a new fine for violating the minimum speed limit in the fast lane. This new measure is aimed at reducing congestion and promoting better traffic flow on the roads.

According to the Abu Dhabi Police, the minimum speed limit on the fast lane is now set at 100 km/hour. The move comes as part of a wider initiative to improve road safety and reduce the number of accidents caused by slow-moving vehicles on the highways. Violating the minimum speed limit will result in a fine of AED 400.

The introduction of the minimum speed limit is a much-needed step towards ensuring the safety of all road users. Slow-moving vehicles not only create traffic jams, but they also pose a significant risk to other drivers, especially those driving at high speeds. With the new minimum speed limit, drivers will be able to maintain a steady pace, reducing the chances of accidents and making the roads safer for all.

The Abu Dhabi Police have also stressed the importance of drivers being aware of their surroundings and following the rules of the road. It is essential to keep a safe distance from other vehicles and avoid sudden lane changes, which can lead to accidents. The authorities have also urged drivers to use the left lanes for slower-moving traffic and to keep the fast lane free for vehicles traveling at higher speeds.
