The initiative will remain in effect for a period of two weeks, beginning August 26
A new initiative by the Ministry of Interior will allow motorists across the UAE to reduce their black traffic points.
This initiative will be in effect for two weeks starting from August 26, as part of the ‘Accident-Free Day’ awareness campaign.
Motorists can have four black traffic points deducted by complying with traffic regulations and avoiding accidents. In addition, they must sign a traffic pledge available on the Ministry’s website.
Launched to coincide with the start of the new school year, the scheme seeks to ensure a safe first day back, with no accidents, as students return from their summer break and yellow school buses fill the busy streets of the Emirates.
The Ministry highlighted that the campaign is designed to promote responsible driving by educating motorists on vehicle safety, the importance of adhering to speed limits near schools, and avoiding distractions such as mobile phones.
The initiative further aims to encourage drivers to follow traffic lanes, maintain safe distances, give priority to pedestrians, and ensure that emergency vehicles are allowed to pass freely.Top of Form
