The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has launched an instalment scheme to pay fines accumulated for wrong parking, Salik, or offences related to right of way.

The Emarat Al Youm on Wednesday quoted Ahmed Al-Ka’abi, Director of RTA’s financial Department as saying the scheme is applicable to both individuals and companies. While individuals can opt for the plan if they have accumulated fines of at least Dh3,000, the amount is Dh30,000 for companies.

Offenders have to pay 25 per cent up front, he said adding vehicles availing the facility cannot be sold or exported until the dues are paid.

The official said that 868,000 of the 1.12 million traffic violations recorded from 2007 to July 2010 were related to Salik violations.
