Drivers in Dubai who treat the fast lane like a comfort zone may want to move over — or open their wallets. Authorities are reminding motorists that lingering in the fast lane without overtaking can trigger a fine of about $109 (400 dirhams), Gulf News reported.
The Roads and Transport Authority has rolled out fresh warnings on electronic message boards across major highways, spelling it out clearly: the fast lane is for overtaking, not cruising — even if you’re driving at the speed limit, according to the report.
The takeaway flashing above Dubai’s highways is simple: overtake, then move over — or pay up.
