Hello

I moved to Dubai for work and I'm driving my car with a Saudi plate.

Do I need to use Salik? I heard that you don't need as Saudi plate but not sure

If I got a flash in Dubai from speed radar, did I get a ticket? Do I have to pay for it? what if not?

Please and thanx in advance

Double check as some of my colleagues were stopped by police and told to put Salik tags. Those tags are still on their cars when they brought them back to Saudi. Apparently you need them as a visitor still.

On the speed radars, fines from UAE follow you to Saudi. Some colleagues have gotten them after return to Saudi while others were stopped when exiting and told to pay. It is quite strange as between Saudi and Bahrain, the fines don't follow you at all. Guess UAE is much stricter.
