Doesn't appear to be too much traffic - non existent in fact! Must have been a major road junction in Old Dubai to have a Traffic Policeman on duty.

Two Landrovers, two cars and a motorcycle were enough to give the Traffic Policeman a headache in the 1960s!

This photo must be from the late 1960s given the model and age of the car (an Austin A55). Dubai Police were busy with road accidents long before the Sheikh Zayed Road was built.

Dubai Police were always keen to use technology to help their cause. Drivers had to keep a look out for VW Combi Vans parked on the side of the road!
