ABU DHABI (ALETIHAD)

The General Command of the Abu Dhabi Police (ADP) and the company Saaed for Traffic Systems have called on drivers to use the Smart Saaed mobile application for minor accidents in Abu Dhabi, instead of calling the emergency phone number 999.

Notably, the app will be available starting August 1, 2024.

Colonel Mahmoud Youssef Al-Balushi of the Directorate of Traffic and Security Patrol stressed the need for drivers to move their vehicles involved in accidents to the nearest safe place.

This is to avoid traffic violations and ensure the smooth flow of traffic without obstructions, he explained.

Stopping in the middle of the road without justification is considered a violation and is subject to a fine of Dh1,000 and six traffic points, Al-Balushi added.

Speaking about the partnership with Saaed, he noted that such applications aim to enhance customer satisfaction and provide excellent services.

The app allows users to request an accident report for minor accidents directly from the website.

All a driver needs to do is follow a few simple steps to provide the necessary data, such as selecting to locations of the accident on an interactive map, uploading details and photos of the incident and damages.

The process takes minutes, after which the driver will receive the confirmation and incident report via smart notifications.

Drivers are urged to verify the information for all vehicles involved in the accident and complete the claim process to receive a claim number.

Saaed for Traffic Systems reaffirmed that the application will achieve its strategic goals of improving services and ensure traffic accident related services are provided in a timnely manner, thereby saving everyone both time and effort.
