New Traffic Radars Just Went Live in Amman — Here’s How to Avoid a Fine

If you drive around Amman every day, you’ll probably start noticing more smart radars and cameras on major roads. A new traffic monitoring system is now officially active across the city, and it’s designed to catch dangerous driving behaviors more accurately.

The new system includes:

• Smart traffic radars
• Red light cameras
• Average speed monitoring between two points on the road

So even if someone slows down near a radar and speeds up again after, the system can still track their average speed.

The cameras are mainly focused on violations like:

• Speeding
• Crossing red lights
• Unsafe lane changes
• Illegal stopping

According to officials, the devices were installed in areas known for heavy traffic and frequent accidents. Drivers will also see warning signs before entering monitored zones, so there’s no surprise.

If you want to avoid getting fined, keep these tips in mind:

• Stick to the speed limit
• Don’t rush traffic lights
• Avoid cutting between lanes
• Don’t stop in restricted areas
• Drive calmly, especially on major roads

The whole idea behind the new system is to improve road safety and encourage better driving habits across Amman.
