I want to bring to the kind notice of authorities enforcing Saher system in the Kingdom. Recently I got an SMS on my mobile for a traffic violation slapping a fine of SR 300. Upon getting the message I visited the website http://www.moi.gov.sa and through Google satellite came to know that two days before my car was found to be violating traffic rules and it was captured by a Saher camera and the location of the violation was shown in Jeddah-Makkah Highway near Falesteen Crossing at 2 p.m. in the afternoon.
But what is frustrating is that I have not been to Jeddah in the last four months and am based in Yanbu and no one else drove my car to Jeddah.
Then I visited the traffic department in Yanbu but it was of no use. One of the officials in the department said that I have to pay the fine as it is linked to my iqama.
I request the authorities to kindly look into the matter and ensure that people who have not violated traffic rules are not penalized unnecessarily. — Asif Hamdani, Yanbu
