Eid Al Fitr: Abu Dhabi issues guidelines for celebration over the long weekend

Celebrations and safety are the need of the hour, and Abu Dhabi Police and Abu Dhabi Civil Defence Authority are at the front lines of making sure this is exactly what happens over the course of the Eid Al Fitr holiday.

To ensure this, they have issued certain guidelines:

• Remain attentive and reduce speed in residential areas

• Give right of way to emergency response vehicles

• Drive responsibly and avoid stunts and reckless behaviour

• Do not allow children to play or cross the street without supervision

• Refrain from using or handling fireworks

• These guidelines are part of a comprehensive proactive plan that includes boosting security and traffic patrols on main roads, key areas, public gathering places, shopping centres, and public parks.
