Nope, there weren’t more crashed than usual on Dubai roads yesterday. The Emergency and Crises Management Team at the Roads & Transport Authority (RTA) were carrying out a drill scenario of a collision of Dubai Tram with several vehicles at Station 3.

If you were in the area on Friday between 2.00 am until 7.30am you might have seen them.

Several parties took part in the drill including Dubai Police General HQ, General Directorate General of Civil Defence, and Dubai Ambulance Services Corporation.

All part of a plan to improve traffic safety standards

“The drill was based on a presumed collision between Dubai Tram and several vehicles. The aim of the drill was to verify the readiness & quick response of the Emergency & Crises Management Team and step up the preparedness to maintain high traffic safety levels.”

“This drill is part of the plans of RTA’s Emergency & Crises Management Team and complements the ongoing cooperation with other government and semi-government bodies towards the implementation of unified traffic safety standards”.
