Doha, Qatar - The Ministry of Interior (MoI) has warned motorists that parking in a manner that blocks the entrances or exits to homes and buildings is a traffic violation, carrying a QAR300 fine and three points against their driving record.
According to Article 78, Clause 4 of the Traffic Law, blocking house entrances with a vehicle can result in financial penalties and demerit points for the driver.
The MoI emphasized that such violations obstruct vehicle movement and infringe upon the rights of others. They stated on social media, "Proper parking in front of homes, without obstructing entrances or impeding traffic, respects others' rights and prevents a traffic violation."
The Ministry urged drivers to be cautious about their parking choices, ensuring that entrances and exits remain unobstructed for residents and other road users.
