issuance of a warning for a period that can vary from three to 15 days, depending on the
location and state of the vehicle.

If the vehicle has a dashboard in Dubai, an SMS will be issued to its owner to improve the

speed of response.

If the period specified in the warning is met, the vehicle will be towed to the impoundment
yard in the Al Awir area.

Before selling it through the Committee for the Disposal of Abandoned Vehicles, the owner

has the right to retrieve the vehicle by communicating, reviewing, and completing the
requisite procedures.

Through its media channels, the Municipality raises awareness about the importance of

preserving the hygiene of vehicles on a regular basis, particularly while travelling, as well as

the need to find a suitable place for the vehicle and avoid leaving it neglected in public
places in a way that distorts the city’s appearance.

Dubai Municipality implements the community awareness campaign ‘My Vehicle’ annually
under the slogan ‘Clean Vehicle.. sustainable city,’ to reduce the abandonment of discarded

vehicles and equipment in public places and raise awareness of the impact and risks of

such discarded vehicles.
