hi frens,
today monin i was in the hamad heart hospital to pick my frend and i found a parking space inside the gate.the security ter stopped me since it was not a public parking.He told me to take a reverse and instead of reversing i wrongly put the lever in drive and accelerated and my car just had a hit on the automatic parking gate.By gods grace the gate was fine and working but the security took some pics of the gate,plate number,esthimara & my qid and forwarded to someone.he told hemaya security services will be taking care of this and they will call me from the head office.
i just want to know whether they will forward this to the police since this property is owned by the government. Whether i should pay any fine... If so how much it will be...

thanks...

Just go to police station and report someone. If you have comprehensive insurance, your insurance will cover for your repair (as per the policy) plus the damage to gate. Keep the case number with you and whenever they call you, just tell them that you have already reported, this is the case number in police department and that your insurance will cover the damage.

Since its an accident so there should be no fine.

This is amounting to 1 month Jail + QR 5000 fine. Just consider it as a forced holiday to cool down the work related stress.

You're jumping the gun about the fine..

What will probably happen is that you will be charged for the repair of the gate and any related damage.

What about your car ? Was it damaged ? If so, you will have to get a police report prior to repair
