Salik is Dubai’s road electronic free flow toll system that works without toll booths and allows drivers smooth and continuous driving. Every car has a red sticker on the windshield, so a fee of AED 5 will be deducted from the prepaid toll account whenever you pass through Salik. In 222 Car Rent , all the records are done through the RTA Salik system and are billed when the car is returned.
Interesting to know that even if you use a taxi, you also pay Salik charges at the end of the trip.
In such a dynamic city like Dubai, fines happen all the time. Exceeding the speed limit is one of the most popular fines, as speed cameras monitor the majority of roads in Dubai, and it’s easy to Overspeed when you enjoy smooth dring on Dubai roads.
