Unexpected rain provoked many accidents on the UAE

Unexpected rain triggered numerous accidents on the UAE.

Dubai, UAE. Heavy rain spilled over the territory of the United Arab Emirates, has caused numerous road accidents on the country's roads and, as a result, traffic jams.

In this regard, the Dubai Committee for Roads and Transport recommends that drivers drive at low speeds and avoid aquaplaning, as well as not resort to emergency braking - the braking distance increases on wet roads.

Due to the fact that accidents make it difficult to move along the main routes, the committee calls for using the @TrafficDXB application in real time and choosing alternative routes. Numerous accidents occurred this morning in the areas of Arabian Ranches, Nad Al Sheba, Garhoud and Mirdif, on the Al Khail and Umm Suqeim and others.

The UAE National Center for Meteorology and Seismology notes that rainy weather will last over the country until Thursday, March 23. The outdoor temperature has already dropped significantly - to 17 - 23 ° C in the coastal zones, to 19 - 27 ° C - in the inland areas and to 15 - 19 ° C - in the mountains. In the Persian and Oman gulfs, strong unrest is expected.
