Dubai residents are extraordinary people who always go the extra mile!

On November 15 at 6:30 am, a video started to go viral, showing a Dubai resident directing traffic at a busy intersection. The video captures the traffic lights flickering yellow, indicating that they either malfunctioned or an emergency is taking place and first responders will be crossing soon.

The resident felt like it was his moral and civic duty to help direct traffic until the police patrol arrives
