Plan to fine speeding drivers based on salary

Speeding drivers could be fined according to how much they earn under tough new proposals aiming to make Dubai’s roads safer.

“Of course, to some people it is, so it would not be fair to increase the amounts for everyone.”

The plan also includes issuing the fines on the spot so motorists make a direct connection between their bad driving and the financial penalty.
Officials also suggested a link between insurance premiums and licences.
“We can link car insurance to the numbers of fines people get. Someone who has been driving safely for the whole year should have a better insurance rate than someone that has had several accidents or speeding tickets,” Marzouqi was quoted as saying.
“If someone is earning AED50,000 (US$13,000) or AED60,000 a month, a few thousand dirhams worth of fines is nothing,” Dr Ali al Marzouqi, the head of public health and safety at the Dubai Health Authority (DHA), told a conference on Wednesday, cited by the National.
