Police in Abu Dhabi are once again highlighting the dangers of motorists not giving way to pedestrians.

They have released shocking footage of people having a narrow escape from drivers failing to stop at zebra crossings.

The video shows cars speeding along designated walkways, leaving pedestrians stranded in the middle.

Authorities say violators in such cases will be hit with a AED 500 fine and six black points.
