In a 49-second clip, the police showed two accidents that could have been avoided if only the drivers stayed on their lanes or took extra precaution before crossing lines.
One dark-coloured sedan was caught cutting across three lanes as it tried to make it to the exit on the right. Without using any indicator, the car is seen squeezing itself in the space between two trucks — failing to notice the vehicles that were moving fast towards the exit.
In a split second, the sedan rammed into a white car and the impact was so bad that it threw the second vehicle across the five-lane highway, with its trunk completely destroyed. It also smashed into another vehicle, which spun out of control with its rear bumper coming off.
Here's the video:
In the second incident, a silver SUV — which suddenly changed lanes without using indicators — hit a pickup truck on the fast lane. The driver of the pickup lost control of the wheel, causing the vehicle to zigzag across the road and ram back into the SUV.
Due to the impact, the silver four-wheel drive crashed through the barrier. A heavy vehicle was also hit.
Sudden deviation is a serious traffic offence punishable by Dh1,000 fine and four black points, while the penalty for wrong overtaking starts at Dh600 and can go as high as Dh1,000, depending on the offence.
