Using hard shoulder to wait for toll-free period to start is illegal

Abu Dhabi Police have warned motorists not to stop on hard shoulders, especially near Darb toll gates, to wait for the toll-free period to begin. Advanced smart surveillance systems have detected motorists using this trick to avoid paying the toll.

Police shared a video showing several drivers stopping minutes before crossing the toll gate, only moving forward once the toll-free window opened.
