Finally Dashcam are legal to use in UAE

[Rahimdad]

Thanks Ma7amad for sharing. Dash cams were used by police in USA long time back and today there are plenty of reality cop shows using those videos. Technology has advanced and we should take advantage, its just the way you use it and the only threat comes from people who misuse technology for personal benefit and gain without caring about others.

This is really good news and first time I am seeing a clarity in this long standing grey area to use or not to use dashcam here.

TBH, I think cops here should allow and encourage everyone to use it and freely send the video to Dubai Police for below type of offenders:

• Cutting 4 lanes horizontally at 120 w/o checking the shoulder
• Driving in hard shoulders in busy traffic area
• Swerve all of sudden ahead of you w/o any indication
• Drive too slow in fastest lane and block traffic flow
• Tailgate you and blink 100 times in a minute like an ambulance or fire dept.
