Umm Al Quwain is the latest emirate to announce a 50 per cent discount on traffic fines, coinciding with the UAE's Golden Jubilee celebrations.

The offer, which runs from December 1 to January 6, applies to violations committed in the emirate before November 1.

Fines related to serious offences such as dangerous driving, vehicle modifications and violations of COVID-19 precautionary measures are not covered under the discount scheme.

A similar initiative was announced in Ajman and Sharjah earlier this month.
