Abu Dhabi - Emirates Voice

The traffic authorities in Abu Dhabi have issued fresh warning for motorists driving on the hard shoulder as they block way for emergency vehicles.

Blocking or not giving way to ambulances or other emergency vehicles is an uncivilised behaviour which leads to delay in reaching accident or fire scenes to save lives, according to the police.

Abu Dhabi Police said 97 cases of drivers not giving way to emergency vehicles were recorded in 2016.

Traffic authorities said drivers should pull to the side of the road to let ambulance teams pass and reach quickly to patients or accident victims.

"Drivers failing to give way for emergency vehicles put people's lives in danger," said a police officer. "Drivers should move out of the way when they see emergency vehicles, especially ambulances."

Police also warned motorists against driving on the hard shoulder stressing that it was designated for emergency vehicles only.

As part of the new traffic amendments introduced by the Ministry of Interior in July, the fine for driving from the hard shoulder was increased from Dh600 to Dh1,000. Six black points will also be recorded against the errant driver. Drivers caught blocking emergency vehicles now face a fine of Dh1,000 instead of Dh500 plus four black points. Their cars are seized for a period of 30 days.

The Abu Dhabi Police said they have launched several awareness campaigns to educate the public about the need to give way to ambulances and how to respond to provide first aid to those who may get injured or fall ill.
