Major General Al Nuaimi explained that the resolution applies to all traffic violations committed in the Ajman emirate before November 23, except transgressions related to driving vehicles in ways that endanger the lives of others, changing a vehicle’s engine or chassis without a licence, and violating the precautionary measures enacted to control the spread of the Covid-19 virus.
