Dubai: The UAE has issued a special advisory for citizens traveling abroad for tourism. The guidelines come in the wake of recent incidents in which Emirati nationals lost their lives in road accidents in Türkiye and Oman.
The five key recommendations are as follows:
1. Understand the local laws of the country you are visiting. Be aware of and follow traffic rules and regulations.
2. Check the weather conditions and road situations of your destination before traveling.
3. If driving abroad, exercise extra caution on the roads. As you may be unfamiliar with routes, traffic systems, and the terrain, it is important to remain highly alert.
4. Air travel is preferable to road travel, as it is generally safer, more comfortable, and stress-free.
5. Before booking a trip or a rental car, research the tour operators and try to book through well-rated companies.
For emergencies, travelers can contact the UAE on 0097180024.
