How driving slowly could put you in danger and lead to accidents in the UAE.
If you drive slowly, you could put yourself in danger and cause accidents in the United Arab Emirates.
Driving slowly is not always safe; for example, if a car is occupying the high-speed lanes and does not give way to cars coming from behind, this can result in a significant problem.
The Dubai Police warns drivers about updates to road speed limits.
According to the Dubai Police, the first lane from the left is reserved for vehicles that are making passes at other vehicles as well as for emergency response vehicles. Residents of the United Arab Emirates frequently use the first lane, which is supposed to be left open unless it is required, in order to maintain a speed that is continuously higher than the maximum allowed.
Instructors with years of experience, such as Mohammed Asif, warn drivers about the risks associated with dominating the first lane. The following is what he had to say: "Staying in the first lane of the road while driving at a speed that is lower than the speed limit that is designated for you frequently results in more accidents than one might think."
"People who are driving at 130 kilometres per hour in the first two lanes on a route that is 140 kilometres per hour do not anticipate having to rapidly brake in order to go below 100 kilometres per hour. Therefore, it is irresponsible to force other people to drive at the same speed as you, which is slow," remarked Asif at the time.
The UAE Police warns drivers about updates to the minimum and maximum speed limits on the roads.
The authorities have imposed fines to deter drivers from moving too slowly on highways at high speeds. In April 2023, the Abu Dhabi Police Department used X (which was then known as Twitter) to inform people of a Dh400 fine for driving at a speed of less than 120 kilometres per hour in the first two lanes of a road that was designed for 140 kilometres per hour. Sheikh Mohamed Bin Rashid Road, which is the road that connects Dubai and Abu Dhabi, was the location where the fine was implemented.
The RTA warns drivers about updates to the speed limits on the roads.
For the purpose of preventing unintentional violations of the law, the Road and Transport Authority (RTA) of Dubai and the authorities of the United Arab Emirates advise people to always keep a close check on updates that are being distributed via their channels regarding regulatory changes.
The Abu Dhabi Police warns drivers about updates to road speed limits.
Residents of the United Arab Emirates are provided with up-to-date road safety advisories and films on various social media platforms by the Abu Dhabi Police Department. On the roadway in Abu Dhabi, the administration stated that the minimum speed limit that was enforced was implemented with the intention of enhancing the safety of all drivers and reducing the likelihood of accidents occurring.
