In a bid to control traffic violations in the country, the traffic department has placed speed radars in not a fixed location but anywhere and on any vehicle either parked or moving.
As a matter of fact, the radars use the infrared technology which has no flash light with a speed detector operating even while the vehicle is moving in any weather conditions.
It also captures the photograph of the violating vehicle with the number plate and sends the information to the patrolling officer, it is learnt.
Meanwhile, the General Directorate of Traffic has also launched a civil patrol equipped with a modern radar device to cover the external and the internal roads where there are many complaints.
According to Captain Shabib Mohammed al Nuaimi, the radar has a speed sensor which is not visible and can shoot the cars in both directions. The patrol car is equipped with control devices with whose help the patrolling officials can fix the speed of the large and small vehicles, as well as identify the street number.
