Hit pedestrian on service road: What should I expect?

Dear Sir/Madam,

I was driving on the service road, and a person crossed the main road and stepped onto the service road.

My car hit him by the side. and he fell down. As per the ambulance, the pedestrian will have to get some stitches. The ambulance took him to the hospital and the police took the report from me and the statement at the police station.

The police asked me to wait for them to call me. I'm waiting for a few days now and my whole family is extremely worried.

What are the possible consequences?

Hi,

Do not worry at all!

The police will only follow up to inform you of the court session you will have.

There will be a court hearing for you and then you will be fined an amount of 10,000 AED or less (probably less) if the injuries of the hit person are minimal (few stitches are considered minimal).

For more information, please contact us via WhatsApp.

Hi Mr. Ahmed,

Thank you so much for the response.

After taking the statement, the police asked me to go home.

It has been 2 days now and I did not hear anything. What may be the possible reason?

This is the standard procedure. If the accident is merely an accident then you will be allowed to go home and after a while you will be notified for a court session in which a verdict will be passed against you for a fine. For more information, please contact us via WhatsApp 0555583387
