Pedestrian safety is of great importance within any city, and
this is especially the case in areas which experience significant
levels of pedestrian congestion. There are many systems already
present to make on foot travel as safe as can be such as traffic
lights and pedestrian crossings. However, these methods are
standard around the world, and accidents still occur.
The Abu Dhabi police have recently announced and unveiled a new
system they intend to put out into the public which, the hope is,
will result in a drastic increase in safety and decrease in
accident occurrences. The new introduction is that of pedestrian
radar cameras.
How the Radars Work
The system will begin in school zones, as these are some of the
most critical areas which see severe congestion at certain times of
the day.
