Dubai's efforts align with similar initiatives in other emirates. In Ajman, for example, a smart monitoring system was activated on October 1, targeting traffic violators.

This system, which includes 26 locations for electronic gates, uses AI-powered cameras to detect violations like mobile phone use and seatbelt non-compliance. By introducing these advanced monitoring solutions, the aim is to further reduce road accidents and improve overall traffic safety for both drivers and pedestrians.
