 UAE Environmental Laws issued by the Government of United Arab Emirates from 1971 to 2011. 

These laws impact all the inhabitants and residents in UAE. Vehicles are driven on the left side of the road in Dubai.

While driving with children, it is prohibited for those younger than 13 years old to sit in the passenger seat, while children between the ages of 4 and 8 are required to sit on a booster seat. Seatbelt must be worn at all times and drivers must use handsfree sets if talking on their mobile phone.
 
But in India there in no specific age to sit in front of the seat.
Indians drive on the left side of the road. 
There are laws that require people to wear seatbelts, but this law is not followed much.

In the UAE, Every accident, no matter how minor, must be reported to the police so that they can assess the severity of the accident and issue a pink slip of paper. 

But in india they don't have to take a slip no matter how small or big the accident is. 

Thank you.....

An example of this is :
A part of the way parallel to the way’s column from both sides. It is destined for walkers. This benefits the safety of citizens as it insures that citizens will not be harmed on sidewalks.
Environmental laws are made so that us UAE, do not pollute the roads or places wherever we want to. By doing this, it helps citizens as there will be less pollution in the country, which will be better for the citizens
