As the UAE prepares to celebrate its 53rd National Day, affectionately known as Eid Al Etihad, the Ministry of Interior is taking steps to ensure public safety. They have issued a set of guidelines for motorists to foster a responsible celebration environment. The advisory stresses the importance of following traffic laws and adhering closely to police instructions.
A significant point highlighted in the guidelines is the ban on spontaneous marches and gatherings. While these activities may be well-intentioned, they can disrupt traffic and create safety hazards. By steering clear of such events, residents can help ensure a smoother and safer National Day for everyone.
The Ministry also calls on the public to adopt safe driving practices and stay alert on the roads. This includes obeying speed limits, wearing seat belts, and avoiding mobile phone use while driving. By adhering to these rules, drivers not only protect themselves but also safeguard other road users.
Beyond traffic regulations, the advisory encourages everyone to partake in the festivities in a way that embodies the unity and pride of National Day. This year’s celebrations, set against the backdrop of the UAE’s ongoing growth and prosperity, present a wonderful opportunity for residents to unite and celebrate the nation’s achievements while remaining safe and considerate on the roads.
