Guys dont worry , now I come with the clear information about crossing the red line only (not crossing the road and go other side).
In my case I crossed the red light line and I stop, I got flash and I did not reverse back, after the light turns green I move . I got a message after 6 days with photo on metrash with fine of 300 riyals only. If you pay within a month you have to pay only half that is 150 only. If you cross the red light and stop, either you reverse back or not the fine will be the same(the important thing is you are not blocking a vehicle) Thanks I saved from the dreaded 6000 riyals
sankapoor is this rule published in ur indian lungi times newspaper
buddy don't worry..if you crossed the line but brought your car back, you will pay 500 and nothing more..
sankapoor: don't talk non sense just to worry people..9000 it seems..what new rule?..show me a source..did a random cab driver tell you that or did you overhear two random people talking? or is it something you dreamed up while on the toilet today?..don't spread silly rumors and post only verified info please..its extremely annoying when people just speak drivel without even having a clue..god you've managed to wind me up you tosser!
Now new rule
you will pay 9000/-
be careful
If you reverse it in a safe position without harming anyone & without accident then they will reduce it upto 500 to 600 QR .
Do not worry everything will be alright !! wait for 4-5 days for sms & then go to Muroor if possible with your arabic friend if you dont know arabic.
Take care next time it was your good luk that no vehicle was coming on other side !!
You will be fined 6000 only if you cross the signal in red light. 500 if you stop the car and reverse without crossing the signal.
wait and check on the site www.moi.gov.qa. If it is a 6000 QAR fine got to traffic department. If you stopped and went back, they can check this on the video. If this is the case, Inshallah they will downgrade this to crossing the white line that worths 500-600 QAR
