No Speed Buffer In Abu Dhabi
Unlike Dubai, where you’re allowed a 20 km/h buffer above the speed limit, Abu Dhabi has a strict no-tolerance policy. If you’re caught exceeding the speed limit, be prepared to face hefty fines of up to AED 3,000. And don’t think you can get away with driving too slowly either – if you’re caught driving below the minimum speed limit, you could be fined AED 400.
Drive Safe, Stay Informed
