DUBAI // Two people were killed and 19 injured in separate road accidents this past week, said Dubai Police.
Col Saif Al Mazrouei, the director of the General Department of Traffic, said an Asian man was killed and another seriously injured when they were run over on Friday.
“The two men were run over at about 2.30am before the Business Bay Bridge,” he said. They were hit by a BMW, said Col Mazrouei.
In another incident, an Emirati man riding a motorcycle was killed while driving recklessly through the Trade Centre underpass travelling towards Abu Dhabi.
“The man drove on the hard shoulder, lost his balance and fell, which led to his death,” said Col Mazrouei.
He said that 19 people sustained moderate to serious injuries in separate accidents, and said they were all taken to hospital for treatment.
Col Mazrouei urged motorists to be cautious and abide by traffic laws.

Trump has so far secured 295 Electoral College votes, according to the Associated Press, exceeding the 270 needed to win. Only Nevada and Arizona remain to be called, and both swing states are leaning Republican. Trump swept all five remaining swing states, North Carolina, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin, sealing his path to victory and giving him a strong mandate.
Popular Vote Tally
The count is ongoing, but Trump currently leads with nearly 51 per cent of the popular vote to Harris’s 47.6 per cent. Trump has over 72.2 million votes, while Harris trails with approximately 67.4 million.
