An accident near the old Hard Rock Cafe has resulted in tailbacks along the busy Sheikh Zayed Road till the Trade Centre junction, in Dubai.

The accident happened during the early morning rush hour delaying office workers and students. Until the time of filing the story at 8:15am, traffic was slow.

Drivers going to office and parents taking their children to school told Emirates 24|7 that the bottleneck was due to an accident just before the old Hard Rock Cafe near American University of Dubai in the direction of traffic going towards Abu Dhabi.

"It does not seem to be major, but it is the rubberneckers who slow down to stare that is keeping the traffic from moving along," said an irate driver, late for work.

"Car crash on the way to school near the old Hard Rock Cafe," said a parent on his way to drop his children to school in the Gardens area.

Emirates 24|7 could see traffic moving at a snail's pace along Sheikh Zayed Road in the direction of Abu Dhabi.
