Special training courses have been rolled out for delivery bike riders in Dubai.

The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) said on Monday that it is coordinating with authorised driving institutes to qualify instructors in this regard.

The RTA is overseeing the implementation of the tailor-made training courses.

The courses define the obligations and procedures to be observed by drivers for their own safety and that of residents.
