In one clip, around the 23-second mark, a black car is caught speeding and suddenly veering out of its lane.




The driver narrowly avoided a collision with a nearby minivan and a white car in the opposite lane. However, the high speed caused her to crash through the road barriers, causing her to crash several times.

In the same video, a white car is also seen crossing the road markings – failing to notice a van traveling in the fourth lane. The van then crashed into the sedan, forcing it to roll away and hit the gutter before returning to its seat.

Here is the footage:

Abu Dhabi police have urged drivers to avoid sudden swerving and overtaking unless they have made sure the road is clear.
