Two people were killed and 10 were injured in a road accident involving three buses in Dubai on Tuesday.
Police said the buses were travelling on Al Khail Road when one driver changed lanes suddenly without making a signal.
The bus crashed into the other two and then hit a roadside barrier.

Police received an accident report at 6.30am and sent patrols and ambulances.
Brig Gen Saif Al Mazrouei, director of traffic at Dubai Police, said: "Initial inspections showed one of the buses deviated from its lane to the left, which caused it to collide with another bus that was in the correct lane. The severity of the collision caused the bus to bounce back to the right and collide with a second bus. It then veered and crashed into a barrier."
The bus tipped over, and the force of the crash killed two people instantly and injured 10 others.
Brig Gen Al Mazrouei said suddenly changing lanes without indicating and distracted driving are among the most dangerous errors.
He called on motorists to drive cautiously to prevent further accidents.

Can NRIs vote in the election?
Indians residing overseas cannot cast their ballot abroad
Non-resident Indians or NRIs can vote only by going to a polling booth in their home constituency
There are about 3.1 million NRIs living overseas
Indians have urged political parties to extend the right to vote to citizens residing overseas
A committee of the Election Commission of India approved of proxy voting for non-resident Indians
Proxy voting means that a person can authorise someone residing in the same polling booth area to cast a vote on his behalf.
This option is currently available for the armed forces, police and government officials posted outside India
A bill was passed in the lower house of India’s parliament or the Lok Sabha to extend proxy voting to non-resident Indians
However, this did not come before the upper house or Rajya Sabha and has lapsed
The issue of NRI voting draws a huge amount of interest in India and overseas
Over the past few months, Indians have received messages on mobile phones and on social media claiming that NRIs can cast their votes online
The Election Commission of India then clarified that NRIs could not vote online
The Election Commission lodged a complaint with the Delhi Police asking it to clamp down on the people spreading misinformation
