Erase 4 Black Points by Joining August 31 Accident Free Day
The Ministry of Interior has announced that August 31, 2026 will be an Accident Free Day across the UAE, and anyone who signs the safety pledge and avoids an accident that day will see four black points automatically removed from their licence on September 25.
Who Can Join
The offer is open to every driver holding a UAE‑issued licence, the announcement simply refers to “UAE drivers,” so nationality or visa status does not matter as long as the licence is valid in the Emirates.
How to Sign Up and What to Expect
- Visit the Ministry of Interior website and log in with your Emirates ID.
- Read the pledge that commits you to obey speed limits, keep a safe distance, wear seatbelts and give way to emergency vehicles on August 31.
- Click to confirm the pledge; no further paperwork is required.
- If you drive accident‑free on the designated day, the system will deduct four black points from your record on September 25 without any extra action from you.
No monetary fines or additional penalties are mentioned in the announcement, so the only cost to participants is the time spent signing the online pledge.
For businesses that employ drivers, reminding staff to register before the deadline can spare the company future insurance premium hikes that often follow licence suspensions.
In short, a quick online sign‑up on the Ministry of Interior portal could shave four points off a driver’s record, easing the path to a clean licence and avoiding the risk of revocation for high‑point totals.
