"The only exception to this discount is the non-payable fines which violators need to visit the traffic department to process," he said. "Drivers are urged to take the chance and pay a lower traffic fine."

As per the tougher unified traffic law with higher fines and a black points system amended in July all over the UAE, violators are penalised with up to 24 black points, following which they lose their driving license.
