Why didn't they install countdown timer at every traffic light,I really think it would be a big help to all drivers

DID U SEE THE CAMERA FLASH?

REVERSING DOESN'T HELP, INFACT IT MIGHT TRIGGER THE CAMERA ONCE AGAIN

ANYWAY...THE CAMERA TAKES VIDEO. SO GOOD DEEDS DONT GO INVAIN.

IF U FIND A FINE IN MOI.GOV.QA AGAINST UR NAME, GO TO MADINA KHALIFA POLICE STATION, TALK TO THE 3 STAR OFFICER, BEG FOR HELP. HE MIGHT REDUCE.

DONT KILL URSELF FOR 6K. 6KS WILL COME N GO...TIME WONT. CHEERS!!!

You can go to the traffic police department and explain to them that you didn't do it on purpose.

Tell them: "I was drunk and had no idea where I was going"

But I must warn you: this is a prank. If you do it and they punish you, do not commit suicide

6000 QR is a good figure as people are scared of breaking the law. You jump a red light and kill a family, you deserve 6000 QR plus jail time for manslaughter.

U have to drive and u can drive but dont expect less fine if u violate the rules. Authorities are discussing to increase the penalties to reduce fatalities.

6000 is nothing when you compare it with the disaster it may create if u jump the red lights. It may take so many innocent lives if its 1000 QR. You are not gonna loose anything if u want for 1 to 3 mins till the signal turns green.

The fine should be reduce maximum 1000 QR we can accept.

What the hell this 6000 ????

Was it in a Round About?

I did the same once when I was crossing a big round about. Single was orange (blinking) and as its normal in many RA signal 75% of my car was beyond the white line and then I noticed that signal is red.

There was a ISF (red Card) police car right next to me. I reversed back, police warn me not to go back with an horn.

But thanks GOD its more than a week now but as yet I did not see any charges in their website.

If he was then he should go to jail then, I take a taxi if I'm imbibing the amber nectar.

I have no sympathy for these people, oh I was just 50Km over the speed limit because my cat was sick, I jumped the light because I was doing 120km and could not stop, I went the wrong way down a one way street because my filipino girlfriend texted me that KFC was about to close....

You break the rules you pay the fine and I hope its a big one.
