5 Driving Rules in Dubai That You Must Know

Anyone who is thinking of traveling to Dubai or moving there, this article is a must to read. In Dubai, everyone’s first priority is to drive a car while roaming around the city. As the city is very known for its attractions, a large number of populations come there for tourism, as a result it gets very busy. Although the government provides a variety of options in public transport, it is recommended to get a car for self-driving as it is more comfortable and convenient for everyone who does not want to get stuck in the road and get burned from the scorching heat of this city. 

But the recent period of time in the world has changed many things. The living style, values and rules and regulations have changed a lot, so the rules of safe driving in Dubai have changed too. But reading this will clear all the queries that are clicking in your mind.

Basic Rules:

The UAE is very strict in obeying the rules and laws, and can punish seriously if it breaks. So, while driving in Dubai keep every little and simple rule in mind, such as wearing seat belts, never text or make call during the drive and do not try to overtake dangerously. And do not copy the locals, when you are in Dubai, you will see many locals do not follow the rules as they should but never try to copy them.

The Right Age for Driving:

To get the driving license, it is mandatory that a person should be or above 18 years old and only after 21 years, can a person get a permit for renting a car.

Drunk Driving:

Dubai is known for night clubbing and partying. But the most important thing to keep in mind is that it will be very dangerous to get drunk, when you are going to drive by yourself. As the consequences can lead to incarceration, so never get drunk and drive.

Speeding:

Dubai has a strong and proper system to analyze and check everyone’s speed. So, going beyond the speed limit is not a good idea. If you are bothered by the speed of a car beside you, let them pass and do not increase the speed of your vehicle. Another thing to keep in mind while driving on the roads of Dubai is that their speed limit is set in kilometers, not miles.

Headlights Flashing:

It is pretty normal to experience in Dubai, that the vehicle behind you flashing the headlights at you. Because the people of this city are normally very impatient and they just want to pass over and speed up their vehicle, or it can be the police indicating you to get past. If there is no thread in passing them over then do, otherwise never risk your life and ignore such signals.

And never ignore any safety guide when you are in Dubai and always stay alert to avoid any misfortune.
