Dubai Crown Prince issues resolution to regulate tramway system
Dubai Crown Prince and Chairman of the Dubai Executive Council Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, has issued Resolution No. (1) of 2014 regulating the tramway system in Dubai as per the best international practices in operation, quality and safety in order to provide citizens with a safe and convenient means of transportation.

Stressing on the safety and security of the public, the Resolution outlined fines for a number of punishable traffic violations. For example, crossing a red traffic light at the intersection area with the tramway causing an accident that leads to the death of a person is punishable with a fine of not less than Dhs10,000 and not exceeding Dhs30,000 in addition to revoking the driver’s license for not less than 30 days and not exceeding one year.

Crossing a red traffic light at the tramway intersection area without causing an accident is punishable with a fine of not less than Dhs2,000 and not exceeding Dhs5,000 in addition to revoking the driver s license for not less than 30 days and not exceeding three months.
The RTA and affiliated departments are to seek the support of Dubai government departments including Dubai Police for the purposes of implementing the Resolution.

Dubai’s metro is making more room for women during the rush hour.
From 7am-9am and from 5pm to 8pm the section reserved for women and children will be extended into half of the adjoining silver-class carriage.
Ramadan Abdulla, director of rail operations at the RTA, said: “The number of women and children metro passengers has noticeably increased thanks, primarily, to the growth in the public transport culture among the public from different social cross-sections.

When brakes fail … try this
In a recent event in Sharjah, Sharjah police saved the life of a Emirati driver whose car brakes failed while driving on a motor way at a speed of 140 km/hr by guiding him to follow the following simple steps the driver came unscratched:
- Flash car hazard lights
- Fasten seat belt and put the car into neutral (N) position
- Hold the wheel tight
- Turn the engine off and on at the same time and the car brakes started functioning normal.
My advice … stay calm and dial the helpline first and if that does not work try the above .. Safe driving
