Proposal to link Emirates ID with traffic file

Abu Dhabi: The Federal Traffic Council has recommended unifying drivers’ traffic file information and linking it to the Emirates ID card so that they share the same ID number.

This is in a bid to make it easy for customers to complete their transactions in any one of the emirates.

Major General Mohammad Saif Al Zafein, Head of the Federal Traffic Council and Deputy Chief Commander for Operational Affairs at Dubai Police, said that the council has finalised drafts of the recommendations related to traffic law and is expecting suggestions on the possibility of adding new texts that are commensurate with the developments and requirements of traffic security.
