If you’ve been driving around Abu Dhabi’s highways you’ve definitely noticed a string of lights alongside the barriers. Abu Dhabi Police launched these lights as a new Road Alert System along Abu Dhabi highways.

The Road Alert System warns motorists of upcoming traffic incidents and bad weather with different patterns of light

As Abu Dhabi Police stated, if the lights flash blue and red at the same time it indicates a traffic incident ahead. On the other hand, if the lights flash yellow then it warns drivers of bad weather such as dust storms, rain, or fog.

These light alerts are solar-powered with internal batteries. Also, they are visible on the road at a 200-metre distance every hour of every day. Their purpose is to warn motorists of upcoming issues on the road, ranging from traffic incidents to bad weather.
