Ras Al Khaimah road changes colour to red, speed limit of 80kmph

A section of a road in Ras Al Khaimah has been painted red to indicate speed limits. Similar painted sections can be spotted on several roads in Dubai as well.

A section of the Sheikh Mohammed bin Salem Road towards the end of Union bridge was painted red and white by a joint committee of Ras Al Khaimah Police and the emirate’s public service department.

The speed limit from that section of the road is 80kmph, and the radar would flash when the speed touches 101kmph, the RAK Police said, urging all motorists to drive within the speed limit.

Such painted strips can be seen on Sheikh Zayed Road and Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Road in the direction of Dubai to indicate marginal reduction of speeds
