Doing so can result in a fine of Dh1,000, as per the UAE Federal Law. Brigadier Saif Mohair Al Mazroui, the director of the Traffic Department at Dubai Police, said the force recently issued fines of Dh1,000 to many onlookers who gathered around accident sites.
Instead of crowding and filming, Al Mazroui urged the public to provide assistance and cooperate with the police in a positive way. The official said the crowding problem is particularly difficult to handle if the accident is near dangerous curves or exits of tunnels, where it is difficult to see the street completely.
