RoadSafetyUAE.com has launched a pledge ‘Make UAE Roads Safer!’ in conjunction with the GCC Traffic Week, which began on Saturday and will be on until March 15.

The UAE has one of the highest per-capita road fatalities globally and RoadSafetyUAE.com wants to help reduce these numbers. “We need the support of as many UAE road traffic participants as possible, by signing the pledge. Traffic participants taking the pledge are encouraged to forward the pledge to family members, friends, and colleagues,” said Thomas Edelmann, founder of RoadSafetyUAE.

For 2014, the objective is 100,000 pledges by year end. Drivers and Passengers taking the pledge will commit themselves to the following four points; ‘Yes’… to seat belts, for everyone in the vehicle, Yes to using indicators, ‘No’ to speeding and ‘No’ to mobile phones without proper hands-free.
