Colonel Al Ameri pointed to the society’s participations in the Arab Forum for Traffic Safety in Tunisia and the General Assembly of the Arabic Organization for Traffic Safety, in addition to its local efforts to enhance communication with the different society segments, with a view to spread the culture of traffic safety and prevent traffic incidents, which cause deaths and severe injuries as well as economic losses and negative impacts on the society.
During the General Assembly, the Society approved the amendment of three articles (38, 52 and 53) within its Statute, pertaining to reducing membership fees, which would allow citizens and residents to join and take part in volunteer work to prevent traffic accidents. The Society also approved a special recommendation to offer a free membership for students less than 18 years of age.
The Saaed General Assembly praised the awareness achievements accomplished as a part of the strategic partnership with the Traffic and Patrols Directorate of Abu Dhabi Police, to spread the traffic culture among drivers in the public and private sectors, educational institutions and public councils in the past two years. 505 lectures and 39 exhibitions were organized, and 83 traffic awareness venues were provided and 20 lectures were held in public councils.
