Dubai Police distributed a total of 71,850 fast-breaking or iftar meals to car drivers, before the Maghrib call, in the first week of Ramadan as part of the “Ramadan Without Accidents” initiative. In order to reduce accidents before breakfast, the authorities chose intersections with high traffic density to distribute the iftar.
The initiative aims to reduce the number of traffic accidents before iftar time, which is caused by certain drivers rushing home and engaging in potentially dangerous driving behaviors.
Traffic officers and volunteers distributed meals at high-traffic intersections, reaching approximately 71,850 individuals in the first week alone, distributing 10,000 meals daily on an average.
