Today's news reporter has much to say on this topic in her column on 10 Nov 06. Lots of good sensible stuff, but what beats me is this stinger at the end of the article..
"The police force is obviously outnumbered by the congested places where people try to cut through traffic and I think that they need a little bit of help.I wonder how much of safe and sensible driving practice it is when you carry a camera and start taking pictures while letting the car/truck/suv drive by itself?So I’ve resorted to carrying a camera and snapping anyone who darts through traffic just so they can get to their destination faster. At the rate I’m going I’ll have a folder full of offenders in less than three days."

Words cannot express how much I loathe this woman.
For the first time in five years here, I am now on the side of the dangerous drivers.

Cameras ?

I kinda agree with your sentiment. While I was there, people made fun of me for driving right. Apparently the size of the drivers penis is inversely proportional to how responsibly a person drives in .a
I am emarati and I dont like her either.
Hey, snapping pics while driving is no problem for six-armed mutant trolls. The rest of us are sadly, underequipped for such an enterprise.
The story on the front page of ET today is more frightening.
Shk Mo has really lost the plot. I'm sure he has no idea how to solve the many issues facing him due to Dubai's overambitious growth and is just adopting a scattergun approach.
Well.. what I wrote about this had nothing to do with the Aida's nationality. I was just amazed how some one who is so..so..so..so appalled by the bad driving ways of most people can resort to the endearing habit of clicking away to build up a thick portfolio of photographs erring drivers and still be a model driver?! Truly an ex(c)eptional way to resolve the problem!
i am borat!why u no show my movie in UA of E?
who is worse?aida bousaidy or debbie menon? i would like 2 know!!
i'm not a supporter of Al Busaidy but at least I give her the benefit of the doubt.
and for all the people Emiratis or not who hate her - why do you hate her? did she hurt you in anyway.
that's besides the point i think it's funny how you all could comment on this topic by pre-judging the situation. pick up the morning paper - EMIRATES TODAY (November 23rd) on page 3 ... entitled
SOON THE TRAFFIC LAW WILL BE IN YOUR HANDS
"Volunteers sought to catch errant drivers by taking pictures of their offences on their mobile phones"
I'm guessing Aida's column was on the right track and the rest of you are just simply - hmmm, what's the word? HATERS.
Next time you'll hold back on your silly comments. At least the Government supports her
