October 23, 2025 | Dubai, UAE: The city continues its vision to create safe roads by introducing Artificial Intelligence-powered cameras that detect unacceptable traffic mistakes in Dubai with high-end technology and surveillance. The organization takes strict actions to decrease accidents and mishappenings and applies discipline among drivers. 

The police authority is a crucial element of the city’s model, depicting its responsibility towards innovation and public security. The involvement of Dubai AI cameras aims to recognize major traffic violations, which can be investigated, and driving becomes more responsible. 

As the vehicles in the city continues to increase, these latest systems will assess driver behavior, enhance security, and redevelop the city’s policies towards unauthorized acts.

List of Unacceptable Traffic Mistakes in Dubai

The authorities have listed violations that will be severely penalized. The organization has also unveiled the penalties and fines that the drivers might face if they break the law. These endeavors plan to enhance road security and reduce congestion in the city.

1. Speed

One of the most unacceptable traffic mistakes in Dubai is speeding. The high-end surveillance monitors can track the exact speed at which one is driving.

  • Any automobile driver who is driving more than 80 kmph will receive a 3,000 dirhams penalty and black points.
  • Those who reach more than 60 kmph will receive a fine and black points.
  • One can also receive a fine of 1,000 dirhams if found exceeding 50 kmph and vice versa for other speed limits.

2. Breaking the Rule of the Red Light

If you drive your vehicle, when the traffic signal is red, you will face a 1000 Dirham penalty and a one-month confiscation. If an individual fails to stay in a designated line, they will face a 400 dirhams charge for small vehicles.

3. Driving Against Traffic

Dubai AI cameras will recognize any vehicle moving in the opposite flow of traffic. Those who violate this rule will face a 600 dirhams charge and a week’s confiscation. One might face hefty charges for one of the most unacceptable traffic mistakes in Dubai.

4. No Seatbelt

A seatbelt is one of the most crucial safety measures for avoiding mishappenings. The surveillance systems are capable of recognizing passengers who fail to follow the rules. Those who break the rule will face a 400 dirhams penalty. The organization states that this specific rule applies to each individual in the automobile. Violation of this rule will result in extra fines. To curb traffic, the authorities have clearly stated that a seatbelt is necessary even for small journeys.

5. Using a Cellphone

Using a phone while driving remained one of the major violations in the city, causing numerous accidents. Dubai AI cameras can now detect drivers who are not attentive and are using their phones while driving. Rule breakers are penalized with an 800 dirhams fine. The safety authorities issue a stern warning that even a minute distraction can lead to accidents and mishappenings. 

Moreover, vehicles using tinted windows exceeding a limit of more than 50% will also face hefty fines. Excessive tinted windows not only hinder visibility and perceptibility but also obstruct the artificial intelligence capability to detect errors.

6. Distance, Honking, and Pedestrians

Maintaining distance between two vehicles is a crucial driving rule. If an individual breaks this rule, they will face a 400 dirhams charge. Additionally, drivers who continuously honk or create excessive noise will be punished with a fine of 2000 dirham. One of the most unacknowledged major traffic violations is failing to stop for pedestrians at crossings. The fine for this violation is 500 Dirhams.

7. Wrong Turns and Creating congestion

Another reason for the Dubai AI camera system is wrong turns. Drivers show a different signal and turn somewhere else, which leads to mishappenings. These unauthorized actions cause congestion, especially on highways, and can result in a fine. Moreover, vehicles that stop in the middle of the road without an appropriate reason will also be penalized. The surveillance system can also recognize vehicles that block others from moving and create chaos, resulting in a penalty.

8. Unauthorized Licenses

Driving with an unauthorized license remains one of the most gullible yet unacceptable traffic mistakes in Dubai. Vehicle owners who drive without renewing their licenses face a hefty fine and four black points. The Dubai AI cameras are connected to databases, helping organizations to identify expired registrations. This integration encourages citizens to remain vigilant with documents and automobile regulations.

The authority has highlighted that being updated with renewals not only prevents charges but also facilitates responsibility among road users. In the comprehensive context of the city’s mobility initiatives, renewals reflect a culture of accountability for the law.

The advent of Dubai AI cameras marked a transformative leap in the transport sector by closely watching major traffic violations and reducing unacceptable traffic mistakes in Dubai. The organizations are ensuring every vehicle user plays their part in road security, from speeding to avoiding seat belts; every act is now under the watch of the authorities, leaving zero scope for errors.

As the city continues to bring new developments in the automobile sector, Artificial Intelligence will be deeply embedded to ensure road security. These Artificial Intelligence surveillance systems help control traffic and detect errors. For citizens and travellers, adopting these changes ensures easy travel, safety, and reduces traffic violations.
