Drivers are advised to abide by the traffic rules during the ongoing roadwork. It can be noted that earlier this month, a new advanced artificial intelligence-powered camera system was installed across Ras Al Khaimah roads.
This real-time data system will support the city’s police in bolstering decision-making, predicting and preventing crimes, and managing traffic incidents more effectively while providing real-time data.
Major General Ali Abdullah bin Alwan Al Nuaimi, Commander-in-Chief of Ras Al Khaimah Police highlighted that these intelligent systems analyse traffic patterns and criminal behaviours, providing real-time data to enhance emergency response times. The sophisticated monitoring allows for early identification of potential hot spots and prediction of criminal activities, ensuring quicker intervention and a significant reduction in response times for both traffic accidents and criminal incidents.
