The rapid action by the Ajman Police to catch a reckless driver in less than two hour shows the professionalism of the police department. Driving a car with care keeps a person who is driving and others safe from any unfortunate incident (“Ajman Police seize reckless driver in less than two hours,” Oct. 23, Gulf Today website).
According to the report, the Ajman Police’s Traffic and Patrols Department seized a Gulf citizen for driving a vehicle recklessly, reversing the direction of traffic on a highway and trying to show off, jeopardising his life and the lives of others in the Emirate of Ajman. According to Lieutenant Colonel Saif Abdullah Al Falasi, Director of Traffic and Patrols Department at Ajman Police, the control systems in the department’s operations room spotted the reckless driver by tracking him on Sheikh Mohamed Bin Zayed Road in the Emirate of Ajman when he was driving his car at an excessive speed in the opposite direction of traffic.
Later, the driver headed to a residential area and drove his vehicle recklessly without regard to the lives of others, he added, noting that traffic patrols chased him and managed in less than two hours to seize him while driving his Lexus sedan in the Al Tallah area.
A life is a precious gift from the Almighty Allah. It’s a social responsibility of people to drive their cars with care because a small mistake can be a reason for a big human tragedy.
I would like to appreciate the Ajman Police’s Traffic and Patrols Department and its professionalism. The great work done by the Ajman Police seizing a man for driving a vehicle recklessly.
I hope people around the United Arab Emirates will show a sense of responsibility and drive their cars following rules and regulations implemented by the government because all the rules are implemented by the authorities to save their people from any unfortunate incident.
