An accident slowed traffic on Khalidia street near Buhaira Corniche in Sharjah on Monday.

Congestion delayed motorists in industrial areas 11, 12 and 15 and near the National Paints factory.

Heavy traffic caused tailbacks in Dubai near Al Twar, Al Nahda, Muhaisnah, International City, Al Mamzar, near the Dubai International Airport, and in Abu Dhabi on Hamdan Street through to the Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Street as well as on Al Falah Street.

The Dubai Police tweeted a warning asking pedestrians not to use their mobile phones while crossing the road.
