The number of accidents caused by motorists driving through red lights in Al Ain fell during the first nine months of this year. There were 10 such accidents - leading to one death - compared with 16 in the same period last year.
"The police command is intent on raising safety standards on the roads … through installing more monitoring devices on intersections to bring down [traffic light] violations," Maj Mohsen Saeed Al Mansouri, head of Al Ain's traffic and patrols section, told The National's Arabic-language sister paper, Al Ittihad, this week.
