Abu Dhabi Police Sends Warnings Instead of Traffic Fines

Abu Dhabi Police SMS alerts campaign is encouraging positive driving behavior by issuing warnings for minor traffic violations.

Warnings do not cover severe traffic violations, including running of red lights, over-tinted windows, and exceeding maximum speed limits.

During the first half of this year, as many as 25,383 such alerts were sent by the authority.
