You may soon have the option of getting a smart number plate when you buy a used car in Dubai. What is the purpose of this smart plate and why is it a good idea to get one for your car? Read on to find out!
Dubai is already ahead of its years when it comes to traffic regulations. Be it its fleet of police supercars on the road, or flying taxis, Dubai has all the solutions to its transportation challenges. Recently, Road and Transport Authority (RTA) in collaboration with Tag2Connect has delivered its forward thinking in the form of a smart number plate. Unlike, traditional metal plates this smart plate will have a digital screen and would have in-built technologies including GPS system and connectivity capabilities. The purpose of this smart plate is to automatically alert the police and ambulance centers in case of an accident or emergency. Both ambulance and police assistance can be swiftly sought through this smart plate, which offers real time communication.
Furthermore, this device can act as a data collection device for the RTA that can study road behaviour by observing vehicle interactions on the road. The technology is still under development and authorities are hopeful to conduct trials by the end of this year. This time period would allow them to identify any bottlenecks in the process or any glitches in the system.
If you are excited about this technology then make sure you have made your car arrangements before these smart plates roll out. To get a great deal on used cars in Dubai head over to CarSwitch.com which can assist you in choosing a car of your liking well within your allocated budget.
