Strange traffic violations

It seems there is a huge increase in people getting a certain traffic fine:

"LOADING A VEHICLE IN A WAY THAT CAUSES DANGER TO PEOPLE AND PROPERTIES"

Personally I know I was not in the area of the fine...I was not even in Qatar!

4 of my friends have the same violation, some even have proof they were elsewhere as well at the recorded time of the 'violation'.

Anybody else...????

Anybody know what exactly this is supposed to refer to?

@ Lucky: "I always get this" ... and you haven't learned yet???????

@OP - This is a fine WITHOUT points. I you want to argue the point go and ask for the points you rightly deserve!

So how consistent are they in writing down plate numbers? I think they're gonna finish the notepad within an hour or 2.

Btw, got my shares too 1,500Qr!

they give this for many reason. for ex: over speeding, changing lanes without giving indicator, overtaking, using phones while driving, parking in a wrong way or place etc etc. if you want to know the real reason, then you have contact with the traffic department, and they will tell you the exact reason. Usually police note down the car number plate only. So until someone was driving overspeed they dont have the photo.

but you can try your luck and talk with the traffic department.

The police on duty in the city will not stop you if you use mobile. They just note down your number. It happens mostly while we stop at the signal and we think it is not violation, but as per the rule it is violation to check text message or write a message even you are stopped on the traffic light. I have seen so many times the police note the plate number for such activities on the traffic lights

This violation generally comes for use of Mobile phone. Two of my friends got it but they were aware that they used mobile phone while driving in the city. They dont have any photos for that. Don't waste your time for the photos unless you have overspeeding or Red Signals.

check the same page in arabic language too. There it ll be clearly mentioned . Take help from ur arabic knowing friends. The error happening when the computer programme automatically generating translations . Actually traffic people enter in their own language in system.

Be happy .

They have pictures so go to the traffic department and ask for the picture to confirm it is your car.
