On May 1, 2023 AD, the warning violations period for the "minimum speed" system on Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Road in both directions on the two motorways will come to an end. This applies to both directions of travel. The Abu Dhabi Police General Command will then begin executing the scheme the day after the expiration of the warning period, which will take place on April 15.
There will be a maximum speed limit of 140 kilometers per hour in both the first and second left lanes, and the minimum speed limit will be 120 kilometers per hour. tickets will be given to motorists and other users of the road who travel at speeds of less than 120 kilometers per hour. These tickets will be issued for "driving a vehicle at a speed less than the minimum speed set for the road, if any." The cost is four hundred dirhams.
She advised motorists to drive safely for the sake of everyone else on the road, and she emphasized that drivers who violate the minimum speed restriction will not be prosecuted in the third lane, which has a speed limit of 140 kilometers per hour, or in the last lane, which is meant for huge trucks. Both of these lanes have different speed limits.
She emphasized that the minimum speed was set in order to move slower vehicles to the right lanes and to oblige drivers to constantly yield to vehicles arriving from behind or to the left. This was done in order to steer slower vehicles to the right lanes. This was done so that the slowest possible speed may be enabled.
