Dubai police have found a solution to the difficulties posed by severe traffic congestion in fulfilling their duties.
A video that has gone viral on photo and video-sharing platform Instagram shows police officers patrolling on horseback.
The brief clip, shared by user Shroti Shende, captures two officers riding through a local market at night. They wear reflective protective vests.
The footage shows them navigating narrow lanes crowded with shoppers with care, ensuring smooth movement despite the busy surroundings.
According to the social media user, Dubai police conduct such mounted patrols in bustling street-shopping areas at night when main roads experience heavy traffic jams.
Comments on the viral video have praised the police for this unique approach. One user remarked that if there were a synonym for style, it would be Dubai police.
