More than 13,700 motorists were fined for tailgating on Abu Dhabi roads during the first six months of this year, according to authorities.
The Abu Dhabi Police on Thursday said 13,759 violations had been registered against drivers for not leaving enough distance between vehicles from January to June this year. The errant motorists were caught by traffic officers and smart radars.
In January this year, the police rolled out a new smart system that uses radars to catch tailgaters and fines both front and rear vehicles under the tailgating offence.
The new system detects the tailgaters for not leaving enough space between vehicles, and also the front vehicle for not giving way to the speeding car on the first left lane (if driving too slow). Both vehicles receive a fine of Dh400.
The tailgaters get four traffic points as well.
