Dubai: Dubai Police have fined at least 44,000 motorists for speaking or texting on mobile phones since the beginning of the year. And they are warning drivers that police are adopting a zero-tolerance policy on the offence.
“We are not relaxing our laws,” Maj Gen Mohammad Saif Al Zafein, Director of the Traffic Department in Dubai Police, told Gulf News. “We will not tolerate such violations that often result in catastrophic accidents.”
