ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates - Thursday, January 28th 2016 [ME NewsWire]The Traffic and Patrols Directorate at Abu Dhabi Police announced the activation of 25 new radars on the Razeen-Al Wagan Road and Truck Road in Al Ain.

He also asserted that the main goal of installing the radars is to improve traffic safety and increase commitment to the designated speed limits.
He also called upon drivers to pay attention, reduce speed, and commit to the law in order to maintain their own and others’ safety. He highlighted the positive achievement of the reduction of road fatalities in the emirate of Abu Dhabi last year.
He also asserted that radars have a positive effect in enhancing traffic safety levels in many locations by reducing speeding violations, which are one of the violations that most endanger road users’ lives.
