2 weeks ago I was hit in the Gaidah flyover from the back by an indian driver I went out of my car and checked both cars and my car was having some damages but his was having none he told me to go to talk to the lady in the car I went to talk to her and it did not take more than 1 minute and thepolice arrived while I was talkign to her and told us to park on the right street. When I went tere he told me that I was blocking the traffic and that this is a violation I answred that it did not take 2 minutes since the accedent happened till he came and now I find out that he gave me a ticket for 500 QR :(.

What do u think is the reasonable time in such a case before it is considered blocking the traffic ?

you can appeal to Officer on Duty in Madina Khalifa Traffic Dept. They sometime listen and waive off the fine.

By the way, blocking traffic after an accident where the mistaken is known is illeglal

 Formatted it says that you were using the phone while driving or were watching a recorded material on ur vehicle tv or you did not put the child in the child seat  that is the translation of what you wrote

Guilt I speack arabic but I think he did not like that I corrected him when he said that I was blocking traffic and I said that it did not take more than 2 mins. Maybe I should have gone ass kissing for this but anyway I was not going to do that. Is there any way that I can complain and rectify this?If there is nothing to do I'll pay it and leave it all to Allah. :)

FS, get the Arabic text of it and post it here. Normally the English translation they give for traffic violation are not proper.

He did not understand what you have told. 2 minutes is not a time which should be considered as blocaking the traffic. Take someone who can speak fluent Arabic to the Officer if you cannot speak Arabic. Normally creating a road block after the accident is considered as traffic violation.
