You're Nicked!

 
You can spot plenty of these Chinese-made bikes around the city, most loaded with empty boxes (not sure what the deal is with this). However, the authorities regularly confiscate the bikes due to dangerous driving practices including kamikaze-style driving towards the oncoming traffic. Apart from the Corniche, there are no designated cycle lanes in Abu Dhabi.
