The UAE government has recently implemented a new regulation in Abu Dhabi that imposes a Dh2,000 fine for vehicles producing excessive noise. This move aims to reduce noise pollution and enhance the quality of life for residents.
Details of the New Regulation
Authorities have identified noisy vehicles, particularly those with modified exhaust systems, as a significant source of noise disturbance. The new fine targets:
- Cars with loud exhaust systems
- Vehicles causing excessive engine noise
- Motorcycles and other motor vehicles exceeding noise limits
Purpose and Impact
The primary goal is to discourage vehicle owners from modifying their vehicles in ways that create unnecessary noise pollution. The regulation is expected to:
- Improve overall noise levels in urban areas
- Protect residents’ health and well-being
- Encourage adherence to vehicle standards
Enforcement
Traffic police and relevant authorities will be responsible for monitoring and enforcing the new rule. Offenders caught violating the noise limits will receive the Dh2,000 fine, and repeated violations may lead to further penalties.
This initiative reflects the UAE’s commitment to creating a more sustainable and livable environment for its population.
