Traffic Violations

Recently the Abu Dhabi police have been fairly aggressive about cracking down on road fatalities. Changing the speed limits was one such measure. Now, with the recent addition of cameras all along the roadways of Abu Dhabi, the police are issuing fines based on video evidence. Whether or not the police will consistently enforce the fines remains to be seen, but at least it's a step in the right direction.

Here is some video evidence of some reckless driving. Some of it is pretty minor, but the last clip is a good example of why these cameras are a good idea. Click on some of the other videos to see examples of some of the stellar driving that I have to deal with on a day to day basis.
