Dubai Police has recorded 94 accidents due to failure to adhere to the lane, reversing dangerously, and driving against the direction of traffic over the past six months.
Of these, 64 accidents were due to failure to adhere to the mandatory lane, while 14 accidents were recorded due to driving the vehicle in the opposite direction, and 16 accidents were recorded due to the vehicle not adhering to the mandatory lane.
Brigadier Jumaa bin Suwaidan pointed out that several traffic violations were monitored, committed by a number of drivers on the emirate’s streets, which almost caused serious traffic accidents, including reversing dangerously, driving against traffic, and not adhering to the mandatory lane, as drivers deliberately commit these violations in order to enter the public road.
He explained tht accidents that occur as a result of these violations are the most dangerous of their kind, because the collision is caused by two opposing forces, between two vehicles moving towards one point.
Punishnments include 600 dirhams and 6 traffic points for driving against traffic, while the fine for reversing dangerously is 500 dirhams and 4 traffic points, while the fine for not adhering to the mandatory lane of a light vehicle is 400 dirhams.
