Motorists while driving their vehicles on the highways need to be alert hundred per cent and obey the traffic rules implemented by the Roads and Transport authority to avoid any ill-fated incidents (“Negligent motorists cause horrific multi-vehicle accidents in Abu Dhabi,” Sept.8, Gulf Today website).

According to the report, negligent motorists caused horrific traffic accidents in the streets of Abu Dhabi, the Abu Dhabi Police have said. The Abu Dhabi Police warned of the dangers of not obeying traffic rules while driving in the streets.  

The Traffic and Patrols Directorate calls on drivers to abide by traffic safety rules by focusing on the road while driving to avoid collision due to sudden stopping of other vehicles without warning.

Everyone has to follow the UAE traffic law while driving vehicles. It’s our social responsibility to obey the rules implemented by the government to avoid fines and unfortunate accidents.
