Baffling traffic fine
Hi to everyone… I was just randomly entering plate numbers on MOI website to check traffic violations (Yeah, I was bored and had nothing to do) and came up with this one.
I just can't understand what this violation is about?
This could mean two things;
1. Vehicle is above 42m in height!!! (Giant Earthmover used for transporting Space shuttle??)
2. The guy has driven the vehicle more than 42m above road level. (May be a light aircraft in disguise??)
Or this can be another bad translation?
the loaded vehicle measured 4.2 metres in height from the road till the top....thats wat the fines for.
either he is driving a heavy vehicle above the height limit ... always check in the arabic violation section coz they type in there the right reason ....
Last week I was telling about traaffic fines. There are so many funny, weird traffic fines with no proofs. Even happened to me a few times.. Finally, go and pay my friend. You cannot ask WHY, WHEN, HOW..
good luck..
Alexmar.. be the person who told you about points system is right as well, but this violation is for the seat belt (As it shows in Arabic Website)..the one highlighted by the OP in red circle
Domsb200... No idea what you're talking about .. Cheers!!
U dont hav knowledge of traffic dimensions buddy. Bec f u do, what will come to your mind is 4.2 in replacement to what teasing ur mind. Cheers!!!
really?? i guess i was lied to.. or the person that told me didnt know what the hell they where talking about
Ok, I just checked the number in Arabic Website.. it says Seatbelt fine..
Definitely bad english translation .. End of the Mystery
I had one of these in the past, what a local told me is that it is a speeding fine. It has nothing to do with translation, the translation is the same in Arabic. What was happening is a lot of locals where getting a lot of speeding fines, and these mean points on your license, and at a certain amount you are supposed to lose your license. So to avoid the hassle of too many points and not being able to take the license away from certain locals they changed what comes up on the fine to 'loading a vehicle' which has the same fine but does not give you points. Hence the fine remains but the awkward situation of having to take away a license from someone disappears.
Typing in random numbers ? I have never been THAT bored. That apart I was once fined for speeding, but the web site referred to my "loading a vehicle in a dangerous manner" or something very similar
So I believe it is not fair to get further details about it. as others siad you can go to the arabic web site to check the real reasons or press pay the fines ,if you want to :), then i believe the reall reasons will also appear.
The bad english translations have been an issue for a long time. I wonder why they won't even fix it.
I'm not sure if it is right to give out this, but plate number was "2000". If someone can check what is the fine in arabic, then it would help us understand.
I guess its bad translation..
that should have read as 4.2m
It is translation problem. Go to the Arabic site and check to get the proper details.
I think you should read it as 4.2 meters.
there are signs for the height all the restricted road so the over height will be fined like flyovers etc
this fine is for the height
Speeding. Stop being so dangerous on the roads.
Could be anything. the best would be to visit the traffic department and ask they.
I remember mine just 3 weeks back. SMS gave one reason, MOI on the Internet gave another and visit to the traffic department gave another reason for the fine.
Looks due to over speeding
Thats my Space Shuttle's traffic violation record... how did you find it ?? :'(
Oh btw..it definitely bad translation... it will make sense in year 2200
fined for not wearing seat belt or over speeding
its always better to check the reason in Arabic
