By Rajive Singh

His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, has ordered individuals who performed dangerous car stunts in City Walk, Dubai, last week, to clean streets in Dubai for four hours daily for 30 days as community service.

The driver of the vehicle and those who were present in the car have been ordered to perform the community service, said a statement by the Dubai Media Office.

The offenders were charged last week with performing dangerous stunts in their 4×4 vehicles in City Walk in rainy weather amidst busy traffic in the presence of families and children.

The individuals showed no respect for traffic laws and general road etiquette, and endangered the safety of people and property in the location.

Police took swift action to arrest the offenders and referred them to the authorities for legal action.
