Police in the UAE capital have once again reminded motorists that failure to leave a safe distance between vehicles could lead to a AED 400 fine and 4 black points.

Releasing footage of several tailgating incidents on Abu Dhabi roads, the authority added that if the tailgating leads to an accident, then the vehicle will be impounded.

A payment of AED 5,000 will be required to release the vehicle, and failure to do so within three months would lead to its auction.

Failure to give way to cars on the fast lane will also cost a fine of AED 400.
