Fog enveloped large parts of the UAE early on Wednesday as police urged motorists to drive carefully.

The National Centre of Meteorology issued a fog alert for almost the entire country, except parts of the coast and the inland areas in Ras Al Khaimah and Fujairah.

Abu Dhabi Police activated speed reduction systems on many roads in the emirate.

The speed limit was reduced to 80 kilometres per hour on roads in Al Shahama and Al Falah.
