This is a major new development that aims at further digitalizing the already advanced infrastructure of the transport sector in Dubai. This new initiative has been taken to modernize the vehicle licensing process and to connect advanced technologies and systems for added productivity.

Details of the New Initiative Taken by the RTA
The Roads and Transport Authority in Dubai has taken a significant initiative to improve the standard of its services. In a massive development that aims at digitalizing the licensing process for motorists in Dubai, RTA has decided to introduce digital vehicle plates on a trial basis. During the trial period, the smart licensing plates will be gradually introduced to check their usefulness.
The new digital plates will be capable of:
- Tracking data about traffic congestions
- Registering details of road trips
- Displaying expiry dates for insurance/licensing
- Monitoring a driver’s style of driving
- Connecting with the paid parking system and toll gates
Highly advanced and capable, the new digital license plates are expected to transform the entire vehicle licensing process. These plates have been designed to track real-time information about the above-mentioned aspects, which will be of great importance in helping RTA maintain its progressive identity as a modern-day transport and licensing authority. The new plates will be connected with the monitoring agency’s control rooms and will help in identifying traffic problems, providing information about accidents and alerting authorities of serious traffic congestion.
This information will be of great help for authorities in finding the long-term solution for some of the serious traffic problems of the emirate such as traffic congestion and reckless driving behavior of motorists among others.
