The Abu Dhabi Police are now using smart vehicles to test new drivers applying for licences. It was a project that the force has presented as part of the week-long UAE Innovates event.

Powered by artificial intelligence and the latest technologies, the vehicle monitors and evaluates the performance of the driver during the test, generates an automated report, and records it directly in the applicant’s file, the police said.


The initiative falls in line with the team’s strategy to deploy advanced systems in ensuring road safety in Abu Dhabi.

Lt-Col Dr Musab Omair Al Sharyani, director of Innovation and Future Foresight Department at Abu Dhabi Police, said the project has been implemented at three main inspection centres in Abu Dhabi, Al Ain, and Al Dhafra.

“Each centre contains control rooms for test supervisors, electronic systems, and monitoring display screens, and performance indicators are linked with the control and monitoring rooms through an advanced communication network,” said the officer.

He stressed the Abu Dhabi Police’s continued interest in providing the best smart practices for the community, and introducing customers to the latest smart initiatives as part of Abu Dhabi’s strategy towards digital transformation.
