Motorists who throw their facemasks and gloves from their vehicles onto the street will receive a AED 1,000 fine and six black points.
In a fresh reminder, the Abu Dhabi Police urged people that the same consequences will apply to those who inappropriately dispose of their protective gear in public places.
Authorities explained that such actions pose environmental risks and threaten the health and well-being of the public.
