Is there any way to complain for traffic signal penalty
On Friday 17/07/09 8.15 pm i was driving on airport road from airport towards Al Fardan side. I was stopped at Toyota signal & waiting for signal to turn green; when red signal turn into green, immediately i started my vehicle & to my surprise camera flashes....
I was waited at signal well behind stop line & started my vehicle only after signal turn into green I'm sure its technical fault somehow. I'll come to know only after 3-4 days whether penalty of QR 6,000/-has been imposed or not. But meantime i would like to know is there any way that we can lodged a complain to Trafic Department about this anomaly.
Hi there...
I was there last night at abt 7:15pm, i got the flash too... i was 3rd or 4th car in the row at the main airport signal going towards toyota signals,, the signal went Green,, yet it flashed at the cars in-front of me, at me and the cars behind me.. am sure it was technical prob or there were testing it or something.. don't worry ur not alone.. and hopefully this fine wont show-up...
Good Luck to U and all who got the flash last night (not guilty ones :P)
You can go to the trafic department in madina khalifa, tell the situation and they will find the picture of your vehicle with the detail of signal timing, also you can ask for the video clip, might be posibile they will check the video clip also, if it is the same as you are telling, then no panelty. Good Luck, and drive safely.
traffic violation
Yes, you can easily complain/fight the fine. Simply go to the traffic dept at Madinat Khalifa. Ask to have the picture printed out and explain the situation. I know several people where they were fined injustly and when the evidence showed that they were not at fault, the violation was thrown out. The system is not perfect. Be aware, however, that this may take you several hours. Ask to speak to the traffic captain if necessary.
