Ras Al Khaimah Police have arrested a young driver for performing dangerous stunts with his vehicle that caused the car to flip over.
The police issued a statement on Friday, which said the motorist, 21, was taken into custody and the vehicle was seized.
A video of the reckless driving and the car flipping over was shared on social media. Authorities managed to track down the driver shortly after the first video was posted.
Police said the man drove recklessly and then lost control of the vehicle.
Capt Abdul Rahman Ahmed Al Shehhi, director of Traffic Investigation at the Traffic and Patrols Department at RAK Police, urged drivers to refrain from reckless behaviour on the roads.
He requested the public to report such behaviour to the police, instead of circulating videos on social media.
The driver was referred to the public prosecutor.
Abu Dhabi Police in April arrested three young men in Al Ain who performed stunts in their cars late at night. Officers also fined onlookers.
A video of the stunts, showing vehicles being driven in reverse, was shared by Abu Dhabi Police on its social media channels.
Officers said the three men paraded their vehicles in a public street, raced on motorways and in residential areas from late night until morning in a dangerous manner.

Explainer: Tanween Design Programme
Non-profit arts studio Tashkeel launched this annual initiative with the intention of supporting budding designers in the UAE. This year, three talents were chosen from hundreds of applicants to be a part of the sixth creative development programme. These are architect Abdulla Al Mulla, interior designer Lana El Samman and graphic designer Yara Habib.
The trio have been guided by experts from the industry over the course of nine months, as they developed their own products that merge their unique styles with traditional elements of Emirati design. This includes laboratory sessions, experimental and collaborative practice, investigation of new business models and evaluation.
It is led by British contemporary design project specialist Helen Voce and mentor Kevin Badni, and offers participants access to experts from across the world, including the likes of UK designer Gareth Neal and multidisciplinary designer and entrepreneur, Sheikh Salem Al Qassimi.
The final pieces are being revealed in a worldwide limited-edition release on the first day of Downtown Designs at Dubai Design Week 2019. Tashkeel will be at stand E31 at the exhibition.
Lisa Ball-Lechgar, deputy director of Tashkeel, said: “The diversity and calibre of the applicants this year … is reflective of the dynamic change that the UAE art and design industry is witnessing, with young creators resolute in making their bold design ideas a reality.”
'THE WORST THING YOU CAN EAT'
Trans fat is typically found in fried and baked goods, but you may be consuming more than you think.
Powdered coffee creamer, microwave popcorn and virtually anything processed with a crust is likely to contain it, as this guide from Mayo Clinic outlines:
Baked goods - Most cakes, cookies, pie crusts and crackers contain shortening, which is usually made from partially hydrogenated vegetable oil. Ready-made frosting is another source of trans fat.
Snacks - Potato, corn and tortilla chips often contain trans fat. And while popcorn can be a healthy snack, many types of packaged or microwave popcorn use trans fat to help cook or flavour the popcorn.
Fried food - Foods that require deep frying — french fries, doughnuts and fried chicken — can contain trans fat from the oil used in the cooking process.
Refrigerator dough - Products such as canned biscuits and cinnamon rolls often contain trans fat, as do frozen pizza crusts.
Creamer and margarine - Nondairy coffee creamer and stick margarines also may contain partially hydrogenated vegetable oils.
