| Hey there, I am moving to Dubai at the end of this month from the UK but I don't have a license. What's the score with driving lessons over there? Any tips/comments would be much appreciated. Cheers |

| The gist is you can not learn to drive here effectively because the driving school instrustors are under par-I think it was chocoholic that posted the article and it was funny!! |

| Oh I can drive, I just haven't got time to take my test here! Plus, I used to drive in Egypt and, believe me, Dubai can't be worse! lol |

| In the last week I watched a guy slam into a boat, a driverless car hit a few parked cars and a guy intentionally hit another car-oh, it has been an eye-opener!! :shock: |

As long as you don't drive in Dubai the way you do in Egypt... |

| Hmmm, it's a real worry actually-if we all went home and drove as close as we do to the car in front I figure there'd be a fair bit of road rage!! This place is phenomenally bad as far as obeying road rules goes and as for just normal courtesy-FORGET IT!! |

| Dear Friends, I'm working as an Electrical Engineer, in Abu Dhabi. I may get transfer to Dubai after 1 year. The company is going to apply for my Employment Visa. Since they are having branches in Dubai & Abu Dhabi , they can get either Visa from both of these emirates. Also I can tell them, which visa to take. I have heard that , Taking Driving License in Abu Dhabi is tougher compared to that of Dubai...Is it true ? Which is more easier to take ? Driving License from Abu Dhabi or from Dubai ? How many tests will be there in Abu Dhabi ? How long will it take to get a call to go for driving lessons , after opening the file ? Please share your opinions with me.. |
