If you’re one of the hundreds of drivers who use Al Ittihad Road to commute between Dubai and Sharjah every day, don’t forget to slow down and observe the new speed restriction to avoid paying heavy fines that might reach Dh3,000.
The authorities declared on Tuesday that the speed limit on a significant portion of the road will be lowered from 100 mph to 80 mph as of November 20.
New traffic signs that will be placed along the section of Al Ittihad Road that stretches from the Sharjah-Dubai border to Al Garhoud Bridg are asking drivers to heed this warning.
Speeding is a major traffic infraction in the United Arab Emirates that carries fines ranging from Dh300 to Dh3,000, contingent on the degree of the driver’s overage. Black points and, in certain situations, car seizure are further consequences of the penalty.
