A reckless motorist has been arrested in Dubai after being caught on camera driving his SUV tilted on two wheels while navigating a roundabout.
Police said the motorist put his life and those of other road users at risk by performing the stunt, commonly known as "skiing," in the Nad Al Sheba area.
Brig Juma bin Suwaidan, deputy director of the general department of traffic, stated that the culprit was swiftly identified and apprehended after the video footage emerged.

The driver admitted to carrying out the dangerous maneuver and other illegal stunts such as drifting.
Police described the offender as a “young man” but did not disclose his age, nationality, or the date of the incident. Brig bin Suwaidan said the vehicle was impounded, and the driver was told to pay a Dh50,000 fee to release it.
According to traffic laws, motorists caught driving recklessly and performing stunts can be fined up to Dh2,000 and have 23 black points added to their driving license.
The senior officer warned motorists against “reckless and hazardous behavior on the roads,” which can lead to serious injuries and deaths.
He emphasized that police have a zero-tolerance approach to irresponsible driving and urged the public to report any incidents through the Police Eye service, via the force's online app, or by calling 901.
