Yesterday morning , I was at the corniche road near the intersection at commercial bank, and I accidentaly ran over a red light. Upon crossing the line, I realised it is red light, and stopped my car and reversed. but I reversed and stayed till the signal became green again and moved. Will I be fined for it with the points? I am living an absolute nightmare in worry since then. It was unintentional and so grateful that no harm was done during the scene.

If you think you have violated any traffic rules you can check status in MoI website by entering your details. If you don’t get any messages don’t worry.

Possibly, all this took place during daytime otherwise you would have noticed the cameras flashing. In the current situation, just be patient for a couple of more days. If you don't get a message on your mobile with regards to the traffic violation, consider yourself lucky. You can also check the status by visiting the MoI website and entering the details.

Worrying over the incident will not help you much.
