Motorists in Dubai who have accumulated traffic fines will be entitled to a 30 per cent discount, provided they settled all their outstanding dues in one go and met other conditions to be announced later, reported 'Gulf News'.

Discounts will be accorded approvals after Eid holidays.

Lieutenant Colonel Saif Muhair Al Mazroui, Acting Director of the Dubai Police Traffic Department, said "this is considered ‘Eidiyah' for motorists".
