How to dispute traffic violations via Absher platform

The Saudi Traffic Department has issued guidance on how to contest traffic violations using the Absher platform or by visiting the nearest traffic office. A follower reached out via the department's official X account, explaining that they received a notice for using the incorrect vehicle model and plate number. The Traffic Department responded on X, confirming that objections to violations can be made through Absher or by visiting the traffic committee at the closest traffic office. The General Directorate of Traffic has stressed the importance of responsible driving on all roads.

Drivers are reminded to observe speed limits, maintain a safe distance from other vehicles, and yield the right of way when necessary. Other recommendations include using turn signals when changing lanes or directions, staying focused and attentive, avoiding distractions, and employing hazard lights during sudden road changes. These reminders are part of continuous public safety awareness initiatives by the General Directorate of Traffic.

The department has previously cautioned against using the road shoulder or a dedicated turning lane to pass other vehicles, as this constitutes a traffic violation.
