A driver causes chaos by veering across motorway lanes in a new video from Abu Dhabi Police.
The SUV driver swerves across six lanes from left to right to take an exit.
The undated 38-second video shows other motorists committing the offence on the same road in the capital.
As part of its latest safety campaign, the force said irresponsible lane changing can lead to serious accidents that would result in severe injuries.
Anyone caught flouting lane-changing rules will be fined Dh400, and the penalty could be far greater if lives are put at risk.

Three tips from La Perle's performers
1 The kind of water athletes drink is important. Gwilym Hooson, a 28-year-old British performer who is currently recovering from knee surgery, found that out when the company was still in Studio City, training for 12 hours a day. “The physio team was like: ‘Why is everyone getting cramps?’ And then they realised we had to add salt and sugar to the water,” he says.
2 A little chocolate is a good thing. “It’s emergency energy,” says Craig Paul Smith, La Perle’s head coach and former Cirque du Soleil performer, gesturing to an almost-empty open box of mini chocolate bars on his desk backstage.
3 Take chances, says Young, who has worked all over the world, including most recently at Dragone’s show in China. “Every time we go out of our comfort zone, we learn a lot about ourselves,” she says.
