At 7.55am, the Dubai Police warned motorists about an accident on Al Khail Road, the exit leading to Mohammed bin Zayed Street towards Jebel Ali.
According to Google Maps, two accidents were reported on Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road (E311) early morning that slowed down traffic and caused huge tailback – near Jumeirah Village Triangle.
