The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has stated that motor-cycles are not exempt from the toll fees. Riders should paste the tags on the motor-cycle?s front windshield, if there is one. If not, riders should subscribe in the same way as motorists and cameras at the toll gates will scan the bike?s registration number and deduct the fees accordingly.The authority has also advised motorists to go through the details attached with Salik welcome kit and read the instructions to install the tag on the car windshield. For further assistance, check out web site www.salik.ae or call 800-72545. The English language daily 'Khaleej Times' quoted Salah Mohammad Al Marzouqi, Deputy Director of Traffic Department Intelligent Traffic Systems and Manager Traffic Department Roads and Transport Authority, as saying: ?Motorists who use Shaikh Zayed Road where the toll gates are located, at Garhoud Bridge and near the Mall of the Emirates must apply for and buy the Salik welcome kit containing the Salik windshield tag from petrol stations (Eppco, Enoc, Emarat) and branches of Dubai Islamic Bank and Emirates Bank. The welcome kit costs Dh100, of which Dh50 is charged as fee to open the account and the rest counted as credit. Motorists have been reminded that after subscription they will receive an SMS which states the account number and pin. The tag will be automatically activated even if the SMS is not immediately received. Source
