According to Major Mohsen Saeed Al Mansouri, Head of Traffic and Patrols Section, the encouraging drop in overturning cases was the result of an intensified traffic awareness campaign during the holy month. “Since the beginning of Ramadan, there have been only four such cases compared to seven in the same period last year” Al Mansouri said.

The traffic department was operating under an integrated plan. “Additional patrols deployed in places where there are heavy traffic, particularly close to Iftar and Taraweeh prayers, has helped reduce the number of accidents in the city,” he added.news@khaleejtimes.com
