One thousand well-behaved drivers will be honoured by police in a ceremony on March 20.

Police will choose the people from the numerous good drivers in Dubai, many of whom have not committed a single traffic violation.

At the ceremony, prizes for the winners will be revealed.

Maj Gen Mohammed Said Al Zafeen, director of the General Traffic Department, said: “The winners must be people who drive on a daily basis and not just individuals who have a driver’s licence.”

He added that people’s age group and experience has been taken into consideration when naming winners.

Drivers earn a white point for every month they do not commit a driver offence.
