Modern technology should be used to check the growing use of mobile phones by motorists while driving, experts at a traffic workshop in Abu Dhabi recommended.
The workshop, which was organised by the Abu Dhabi Police in coordination with the public prosecutors, also suggested that latest devices should be introduced on roads of the Capital to detect such violators to reduce accidents.
There has been a spike in the number of drivers using their mobile phones to call or text while at the wheel, which results in serious crashes due to distraction.
Distracted driving claimed the lives of 59 motorists in the UAE during 2018, according to UAE traffic authorities.
Traffic laws in Abu Dhabi ban drivers from texting, taking photos, eating or even applying makeup while driving.
#?????_????_??????The Abu Dhabi Police had in 2017 fined 30,402 motorists on Abu Dhabi roads for using their mobile phones while behind the wheel.
