Ten people were injured in three other accidents reported in the Emirate.

On Saturday, a vehicle suddenly swerved onto the other lane and crashed into a motorcycle, leaving the rider seriously injured.
Yet another motorcyclist sustained serious injuries in a hit-and-run accident on Al Khawaneej Road.
