New traffic rules: Dubai to Impound Vehicles for Up to 30 Days for 14 Traffic Offences

Image
  Dubai Police will now impound vehicles for up to 30 days for offences like using mobile phones while driving, tailgating, and sudden deviations. These offences also carry fines of Dh400 to Dh1,000 and four black points. Heavy vehicles not following lane discipline will face the same penalty.  Additionally, offences like dangerous overtaking, reversing dangerously, and stopping without reason will lead to a 14-day impoundment. Last year, a Dh50,000 fee was introduced for releasing vehicles seized for serious violations like reckless driving and red-light running. In the first half of 2024, reckless driving caused 94 accidents in Dubai. A recent survey revealed one in three drivers use phones while driving, even though 90% agree it's dangerous.

Five top tips to stay safe from hackers

Image
Here are five top tips from a UAE cybersecurity expert to stay safe from hackers: 1. Update apps and phone software: Regular updates fix vulnerabilities that hackers may exploit. 2. Enable all security features: Adjust privacy settings on messaging apps and social media to limit who can contact or view your profile. 3. Be cautious of suspicious messages or calls: Always double-check before sharing personal info, even with supposed authorities. 4. Destroy package labels: Remove or destroy personal details on delivery labels before discarding. 5. Avoid scanning random QR codes: Stick to known sources when scanning to avoid phishing. WhatsApp Security: Change settings like last seen, profile photo, and groups to “My Contacts,” silence unknown callers, disable link previews, and protect your IP address. Thank you Tom

The high rate of stress in UAE is alarming, so I will suggest we all get this machine and monitor our bp at least 3 times a week. First thing in the morning before brushing your teeth or drinking water   We hardly get enough sleep in this country. Go and read more about blood pressure, stress and sleeplessness and the dangers they pose to our health daily And  cardiac arrest can occur at anytime. During laughing, talking working, sleeping etc. with or without giving any sign.  Lets always put our heath first to avoid going home in body bags   #Healthiswealth
