The Dubai Police Force (Arabic: شرطة دبي), commonly referred to as Dubai Police, is the police force of the Emirate of Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Dubai Police Force was established on June 01, 1956, and was based in "Naif Fort," as its Headquarters, until the year 1973 before it was moved to Al Twar.
Law enforcement is the responsibility of each emirate of the United Arab Emirates; each emirate's police force is responsible for matters within their own borders, but they routinely share information with each other on various areas. The forces also each have units to deal with protests, riot control or heavily armed suspects.

Traffic offenses, such as speeding or disobeying traffic signals, are each assigned a certain number of points, and when a driver is determined to be guilty of a particular offence, the corresponding number of points are added to the driver's total.
