The Dubai police launched their latest app - Smart Traffic Fine app - to track and issue fines. The app, meant exclusively for Dubai Police's military personnel, can report traffic violations and issue tickets via smartphones.
The app's development and launch is in line with the directives of His Highness Shaikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE, and Ruler of Dubai, to make the transformation to Smart Government and Dubai, a smart city.
