Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates - Friday, May 9th 2014
The
profound love and respect for the generous country and the deep sense
of belonging to the bountiful land have prompted the sons and daughters
of the UAE to make distinguished and innovative achievements to express
this love. Many young men and women have gone down in history through
their inventions or prestigious achievements that elevated the name of
UAE in international forums.
Driven by this spirit, and just like
his young Emirati peers, who are passionately loyal to their country, a
Community Police volunteer has managed to customize a bicycle with
special features to enhance the efficiency of police work and boost the
public’s confidence in the police force, which gave humanitarian
dimensions to its public service mission supported by a national
strategy.
Lt. General HH Sheikh Saif bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy
Prime Minister and Minister of Interior, examined the new custom
designed bicycle invented by 21-year old Trainee Pilot Hamad Mohammad Al
Tai'e, which includes a combination of special technical features that
enhance the bicycle’s efficiency, and make it suitable for use by police
officers, in residential neighborhoods and touristic areas and during
social events.
During a meeting with Community Police volunteers
at the Abu Dhabi Police General Headquarters, His Highness Sheikh Saif
hailed the efforts and achievements of the young volunteer. He also
praised the scientific skills and education of Al Tai’e and encouraged
him to exert further efforts in areas of volunteer work and innovation
for the service of the country and the community.
It is also
worth mentioning that there is a total of 120 male and female Emirati
and expatriate Community Police volunteers. Under the supervision of Abu
Dhabi’s Community Police, they have participated in organizing a number
of exhibitions, conferences, forums and awareness campaigns, where they
committed more than 1,000 hour of voluntary police work.
Al
Tai’e, one of the first Community Police volunteers, explained the
characteristics of the new custom design bicycle and its extra equipment
that contribute to enhancing its efficiency in police work. He
mentioned that he added new technical features to the bicycle’s main
frame including electronic devices such as a video camera, a GPS, as
well as a computer to collect, send data and record reports like the
“black box” of an airplane.
Al Tai’e, a trainee pilot at Etihad
Airways, noted that the bicycle is also provided with a modern police
light and siren, hydraulic breaks, and an air container to inflate the
tires within a few seconds.
He added that the bicycle needs 2 to 3 weeks time to be fully equipped, as all fixtures are installed manually.
Al
Tai’e, an aeronautics student, stated that the bicycle has many
specifications. It is painted with the same color scheme as Abu Dhabi
Police patrol cars, with the word (Police) plastered on the frame in
Arabic and English, alongside the emergency number (999) and the
official Abu Dhabi Police website.
Al Tai’e, who confessed to
being a huge fan of bicycles since childhood, indicated that the bicycle
will feature the highest safety standards and public safety
requirements, as well as a helmet to prevent head injuries, and a large
satchel to store a first aid kit, police reports, and other
police-related equipment.
In conclusion, Al Tai’e noted that his
bicycle, despite its exceptional features, is environment friendly. He
reiterated its many benefits, as it provides users with fitness and high
stamina, enhances the muscles and body functions and allows users to
fulfill their assigned tasks in the best way possible.
