Colonel Mubarik Benawas, Head of Tourist Police, the 4WD vehicles have been launched by the General Department of Tourism at Dubai Police with the aim of providing increased security for tourists. The police patrol on the 4WD dune buggies will also look after the possessions of tourists.
Lieutenant Ahmed Al Muhairi who is the acting head of the Travel Programmes Department said that every vehicle will be containing a first aid kit, two extra chairs and a large cabin to carry the possessions. He said that by assisting tourists we will reinforce the traditional impression of Dubai.
