Dubai Police seized 497 vehicles during the first half of 2026 as part of campaigns targeting motorists with large amounts of unpaid traffic fines and expired vehicle registrations.
Some of the seized vehicles had accumulated fines worth tens of thousands of dirhams, while others had remained unregistered for several years. Police warned that failing to settle traffic penalties can result in vehicle impoundment, legal action and suspension of vehicle related transactions.
Authorities are using smart technology to identify vehicles with outstanding violations across roads, parking areas and public spaces. Before taking enforcement action, vehicle owners are contacted through phone calls, SMS and email.
Dubai Police urged motorists to regularly check their traffic fines and settle outstanding payments to avoid further penalties. Motorists can also use instalment payment options available through the Dubai Police app and other authorised channels, making it easier to clear accumulated fines.
Authorities stressed that timely payment and valid vehicle registration are essential to avoid enforcement measures and ensure compliance with UAE traffic regulations.
