Dubai Police reported on Friday that 107 road accidents have occurred over the past eight months in Dubai, resulting in three fatalities and 75 injuries.

In the general department of traffic at Dubai Police, Major General Saif Muhair Al Mazrouei noted that swerving is the main cause of these accidents.

From January to August this year, Dubai Police's smart traffic monitoring systems and radars recorded 529,735 lane violations.

"Drivers were observed making sudden lane changes, especially near intersections and exits. These actions, captured by the smart systems spread across all the emirate's streets, can lead to severe traffic accidents," he warned.

Fine of Dh400

Failure to follow the mandatory lane is punishable by a fine of Dh400, according to Al Mazrouei. He added that certain lanes are reserved for specific types of vehicles, like lanes exclusively for buses and taxis - motorists who use these dedicated lanes will also incur fines.

In order to deter violations, Al Mazrouei emphasized the importance of using smart systems and modern technology. Additionally, he urged drivers to always adhere to the mandatory traffic lanes to avoid grave accidents.
