A recent MOI survey shows that as many as 64% participants believe mobile radars have helped reduce instances of speeding and road accidents. 

It is best to drive carefully and under speed limit if you are driving on these Qatar roads today (Saturday, April 15) - Wholsale Market road, Umm Al Seneem road, Air Force Street, Salwa Road, Shamal Highway, Al Wakra Road - as there are mobile cameras installed on these roads. 

These cameras will not only catch speeding drivers but also those overtaking from right side, driving without seat belts and using phone while driving.  MOI in its tweet has also invited residents to suggest for any new road that should be monitored by the mobile radars.    

Following traffic rules would be in the best interest of not just your health but also the finances as most violators would have realised by now.
