An emergency air ambulance was flown to the emergency and public safety department by another ambulance crew after being injured in a collision that took place today between a truck and a light bus on the truck road before the Ajban bridge towards al-Faye. They were taken to Rahba Hospital for treatment.

The Director of the Department of Traffic of the External Areas in the Directorate of Traffic and Patrol Abu Dhabi Police Brigadier Salim bin Barak Al-Dhahiri, that preliminary investigations attributed the causes of the accident to the wrong rotation and the lack of commitment of the heavy truck driver to the line.
