It came to my attention that I saw a lot of Police with trucks browsing through (mainly) industrial area's in Dubai and Sharjah confiscating many bicycles from poor and "low class" men, who use it only as transportation.
But when those men are loading their bicycle with loads of carton or scrap, driving in opposite direction and jumping red lights I can agree with the Police actions.
But I saw many who just use their bicycle as "work - home" transportation and that's just robbing them from their transportation.
I know the Dubai and Sharjah roads are not suitable for using bicycles, but this Police action has gone to far!!
By the way: The man ALL did ware fluorescing safety vests and helmet, so it cannot be that issue.
