What to Do After the Collision
Disclaimer: This is a general guide for informational purposes. RoadGuard bears no liability for legal or insurance outcomes. Always follow the direct instructions of the Abu Dhabi Police or Saaed officials.
1. Report the Accident
In Abu Dhabi, you must report the accident via the Saaed app or by calling the police. They will issue a "Green" or "Pink" slip, which is required for any repairs or insurance claims.
2. Move to Safety (If Minor)
If the accident is minor and there are no injuries, UAE law requires you to move the vehicles to the shoulder to avoid blocking traffic. If the vehicles cannot be moved, stay a safe distance away from the road.
3. Document the Scene
Take photos of the damage to all vehicles involved and the surrounding area. Exchange contact details and insurance information with the other driver.
4. Arrange Recovery
If your vehicle is not driveable, it must be towed. Do not leave your vehicle on the road as it creates a hazard and may result in fines.
