According to a rule issued by Dubai Municipality, residents will be issued with a Dh500 fine if they leave their vehicle parked on public parking spaces, and leave it unwashed for a long period of time.
###
Dubai Municipality previously explained that this type of behaviour can “tarnish the aesthetic appearance of the city,” and issued the reminder to residents who might be planning a long trip abroad during their summer holiday.
######
Municipal inspectors will target vehicles that look as though they have not been used in a long time, which means they will look out for the big tell-tale signs on the car, and check if it is damaged, vandalised, contains rubbish, or if it has been stationary for a long time.
###
Once the unkempt car has been identified, inspectors will stick a notice on the vehicle’s windshield.
###
Drivers will then have 15 days to clean the vehicle, otherwise, the car will be impounded by authorities.
###
If the vehicle owner does not contact the municipality to pay the fine, the vehicle will be sold by auction, as per the rules issued by Dubai Municipality.
