The professionalism of the Roads and Transport Authority is highly laudable. The Roads and Transport Authority always keeps motorists updated on any changes in the rules to make sure people will not bear unnecessary traffic fines (“Motorists beware! This road in Dubai has reduced its speed limit to 80 km,” Jan.12, Gulf Today website).

According to the report, the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has announced the reduction of the legal speed limit on Dubai-Hatta Road in the part between the Emirates of Dubai and Ajman and Al Hosn Roundabout (with a length of 6 km) from 100 km per hour to 80 km per hour, as of Thursday, January 12, 2023.

The authority indicated that the legal street speed limit signs have been changed to 80 km/h instead of 100 km/h, and red lines have been added at the beginning of the speed reduction zone to alert drivers according to the best standards and methods adopted in traffic safety.

The comprehensive report on the reducing legal speed limit from 100 km/h to 80 km/h on Dubai-Hatta Road in the part between the Emirates of Dubai and Ajman and Al Hosn Roundabout will definitely help people avoid overspeeding.

It’s so important for people who drive cars on a daily basis to be informed with the reports from Roads and Transport Authority for their safety and secure drive.
