The Dubai Police distributed an average of 10,000 fast-breaking meals (iftar) per day and approximately 71,850 meals in the first week of Ramadan as part of the “Ramadan Without Accidents” initiative.
To reduce the number of traffic accidents before the fast-breaking time, traffic officers and volunteers distributed meals at high-traffic intersections to approximately 71,850 individuals in the first week alone.
“The initiative aims to reduce the number of traffic accidents before iftar time, which is caused by certain drivers rushing home and engaging in potentially dangerous driving behaviors,” according to Khaleejtimes.
Pictures shared shows two Dubai Police officers standing at busy intersections, sacrificing their precious iftar time with family to serve the community.
Once the traffic signal turns red, the officers, Capt Khaled Al Hashemi and Lt-Col Abdul Rahman Obaid Al Falasi, make their way to the drivers to hand out meal boxes.
“Voluntary work is not something I am forced to do. It is a reward for me. These 20 minutes of service are moments I cherish,” said Lt-Col Al Falasi.
