Earlier on Sunday, Abu Dhabi Police urged motorists to prioritise safe and attentive driving during rain and unpredictable weather, doubling down on the necessity of avoiding distractions and focusing solely on the road.

"When the speed reduction system on roads is activated, motorists should strictly adhere to the designated speed limits; maintain a safe distance from other vehicles; avoid abrupt braking, and slow down considerably when turning to prevent skids. Pull over to the side of the road immediately if visibility becomes limited," Abu Dhabi Police's Traffic and Patrols Directorate said in a statement.

Driving in rain demands proactive measures for passengers' safety, the statement said, stressing the importance of ensuring clear vision by keeping car windows clean and maintaining headlights for optimal visibility.
