Starting August 1, motorists in Abu Dhabi can report minor traffic accidents more efficiently using the new ‘Saaed’ app. This initiative by the Abu Dhabi Police, in collaboration with Saaed Traffic Systems Company, aims to simplify the accident reporting process and enhance road safety.
Calling the emergency hotline 999 to report minor accidents often causes delays and congestion, inconveniencing both drivers and police.
The ‘Saaed’ app provides a quick and easy way to report minor accidents directly from the scene. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how it works:
How to Use the App
- Download and Access the App: Motorists can download the ‘Saaed’ app on their smartphones. When an accident happens, open the app and select the accident reporting service.
- Enter Details: Enter your phone number to let the app automatically pinpoint your location. Then, upload photos of your vehicle registration, driver’s license, and the damages.
- Submit and Confirm: Verify all details, submit the report, and receive a confirmation with a request number via smart notifications.
This process reduces police intervention in minor accidents and completes the reporting quickly.
Benefits of the ‘Saaed’ App
Colonel Mahmoud Youssef Al-Balushi from the Traffic and Security Patrol Directorate stresses the importance of moving vehicles to a safe spot after an accident to avoid traffic jams. The ‘Saaed’ app supports this by making the accident reporting process faster and more efficient, enhancing overall road safety.
Key Features
- Real-Time Location Tracking: The app uses GPS to accurately locate the accident scene.
- Damage Reporting: Upload detailed images of the accident, ensuring accurate documentation.
- Smart Notifications: Get instant updates and confirmations throughout the process.
Strategic Goals
Saaed Traffic Systems Company states that the app is designed to provide integrated traffic management services, saving time and effort for both drivers and police.
The ‘‘Saaed’ app is set to change how minor traffic accidents are reported in Abu Dhabi, making roads safer and reducing congestion. Motorists are encouraged to use this new technology for a smoother experience.
