Dubai Police Introduces AI for Minor Traffic Accident Reporting

Innovative AI Solutions for Traffic Incidents

Dubai Police is revolutionizing the way minor traffic accidents are handled by utilizing artificial intelligence (AI). This advanced technology aims to make the reporting process faster and more efficient for drivers.

Minor Accident Reporting Service

The AI mechanism is a crucial feature integrated into the Dubai Police app and website, known as the 'Minor Accident Reporting' service. Unlike the traditional method where drivers provide details for manual review, this system enables a seamless transition where AI can analyze the accident and generate reports swiftly for all parties involved.

Development and Future Goals

Major General Khaled Nasser Al Razooqi, Director of the Artificial Intelligence Department at Dubai Police, explains that this AI-powered system is currently in the development and testing phase. The primary objective is to:

• Enhance public services in a smart and innovative manner.
• Accelerate the issuance of traffic reports.
• Reduce manual processes by 50 percent.
• Decrease congestion caused by minor accidents.

Al Razooqi emphasizes that this initiative aligns with the vision of Lieutenant Abdullah Khalifa Al Marri, the Commander-in-Chief of Dubai Police, aiming to continuously improve the force's smart services and streamline user transactions, thereby conserving their time and energy.

Future Enhancements

In addition to the current capabilities, Dubai Police is also developing a feature that will utilize AI to automatically analyze accidents and issue reports without human intervention.

Steps to Self-Report Minor Accidents

Drivers, take note: the Minor Accident Reporting service allows you to report incidents independently, eliminating the need for police presence at the scene. This not only prevents traffic jams but also saves you valuable time. Follow these four simple steps:

1. Log in to the app using your driver’s license, ID, or plate number.
2. Upload pictures of the accident.
3. Allow the AI to determine fault and assess the damage.
4. Receive your report instantly.

This streamlined process is part of Dubai Police's vision to enhance their smart services, making life easier for users.
