Stricter monitoring of e-scooter, e-bike and bicycle use in Dubai
About this episode
The episode discusses the new police unit monitoring e-scooter and e-bike use in Dubai, the demand for a weight loss pill, rising fuel prices, and unusual monkey behavior in Gibraltar.
A new police unit will monitor e-scooters and e-bikes and regular bicycles, from May 1, as concerns grow around safety and misuse. Good news for families as children head back outdoors at schools and activities returning after weeks of disruption. We also look at the huge demand for a new weight loss pill which is now available in Abu Dhabi, with thousands on waiting list at one clinic here in Dubai. We turn our attention too at rising fuel prices and how it affects demand for EVs. And we take you to Gibraltar, where monkeys are eating mud after consuming junk food from tourists.
