THE RIGHT TO DISCONNECT

The UAE summer isn’t just tough on us, it’s tough on our cars too. With warnings over tyre blowouts, battery failures and overheating, we find out what you should be checking before you get behind the wheel.

Dubai Mallathon isn't stuck on malls alone, it has now landed at one of the world's busiest airports.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day is closing in on $2 billion dollars at the global box office. So what does it actually take to create a billion-dollar movie, and can Hollywood engineer a blockbuster?

And Cristiano Ronaldo says this will probably his last year playing professional football. What's next for the number 7?

Your UAE summer car check

Abu Dhabi Police have issued a fresh warning to e-scooter riders about dangerous behaviour on the roads. New analysis too from the UK has found that people involved in e-scooter crashes can suffer more serious injuries than cyclists or even motorcyclists. So what makes an e-scooter accident potentially so dangerous? And what kinds of injuries are doctors seeing?

With major accidents rising sharply, what responsibility do scooter retailers have to make sure the people buying them understand the risks and the rules?

And as Oman steps up its response to the oil spill along its coastline, we speak to an oil-spill specialist about the clean-up operation and what happens next.

Why are e-scooter injuries so serious?

A major oil spill has reached Oman’s coastline, contaminating up to 40 kilometres of shore. 

We look at the threat to marine life and ask how you actually clean up an oil spill.

Plus, the UAE cracks down on nuisance cold callers, a tiny heart implant could keep patients out of hospital, and new research suggests dogs really can read our emotions.

And on World Rollercoaster Day, we head to Yas Island to find out why we love being scared.
