indians are rubbish drivers. i sent my accountant to do some work in 9am and he got back at 6pm. asked him whether there was traffic, he said no i was just driving "really" slow . i guess that means driving 50 kph in the fast lane of SZR.

i hate drivers who drive slow on the fast lane. if you want to drive slow please just move along to the 2nd, or the 3rd, 4th, 5th or 6th lane. if some1 comes flashing behind you and there is no car in front of you, just move aside and let the car behind you go through.

Rather then braking and holding the guy up behind, just to show who is the "man" doesnt make sense to me.

so what if you are already doing 140 on a 120 does it justify those lunatics who flashes theirs lights because they like doing 180 just for kicks???

how do you know they are doing it for kicks? Its very simple. If there is no car in the next lane you move aside and you let the lunatic through. By staying in the same lane, you are just showing your ego and putting yourself and others in a dangerous situation.

i have seen accidents occur when some stupid person didnt let the "lunatic" go through.

there are road cameras and police patrol, so why take the law into your own hands?

I will again stress and echo rudeboy's reply

if someone is on high speed at the far left lane flashing you to give way and your right lane is empty you SHOULD give way... this is said by a policemen...

if its emergency or if its any other reason... not giving a way, will cause/force the speeding driver to make dangerous overtaking and cause accidents...

thats why there are camera's and police to monitor speeding drivers...

A very good friend of mine who is a policeman patrols everyday on emirates road confirms to me the cause of most accidents are due to slow drivers (mostly indians) getting into the left lane and meeting up with a speeding driver (usually Emirati)...

also, one of the main reasons of traffic jams on major highways, is slow drivers causing everyone to drive behind them in rush hours

Interesting comments

Huh? I'm pretty good at identifying nationalities and there's no way that guy was even remotely Caucasian, black, east asian or latino.
As mentioned earlier, I'm not the kind of guy who participates in street racing. But trust me mate, when you have some looney on your arse, sometimes that's the only way out.

michaeldubai wrote:why? because you/your gf dont know how to drive?

The funniest statement I've heard in a long, long time.

FYI, the guy was barely looking at the road ahead. He could've just swerved into our car. I've been at the epicenter of a couple of death defying accidents in the past and am pretty aware of what happens in such situations.

It wasn't my opinion by the way.

I meant the insinuation that women are bad drivers in the first place. Which has been proven time and time again,to not be the case.

I am certainly not going to get into it one way or the other.

By the way, congrats on taking over the # 2 spot on the forum.

women are the worst driver ever!!!! giving them a car to drive is like giving them a killing machine.

women always have to much on their mind to think, no wonder the poor birds cant concentrate on driving when they thinking about make up, bf and shoping.

In 10 years of my driving i have only had one accident, which was caused by a woman because she wanted to go from the left lane (i.e the fast lane) across the right lane (where I was) to the petrol station :S.

women should be banned from driving period.

dude, you should be happier in Saudi

First words of a woman entering a car???

Amazing....3 mirrors!!!!!!!!

Funny, because the majority of accidents I see involve men!

Sage, where do you get these statistics?

Nevermind! Found it!

Yeah women are bad drivers, that's why in many countries we get offered lower car insurance at younger ages than guys! because women are proven to be safer -end of!

I don't really agree that women are bad drivers... the problem with most women is that they panic, get scared when driving and freak out when they are in a speeding car...

usually any driver who panic alot and worries alot and use the horn very often is a killing machine himself regardless women or men.

sadly, due to the feminine nature with most women, this is the way they are... they always panic on the roads

Again - not true.

Looks like road rage setting in

Young male drivers are constantly proved to be the worst.

Here's some statistics by insurance companies:

To be honest the statistics are over 4 years old, so things may have changed a bit. Just a thought.

This is something my little 1year old cousin will agree on... I don't think someone will disagree...

but its also universally known, women are NOT good drivers (I am not saying bad or dangerous) but they are not up to the mark...

and they can be compared to slow malu indians on the roads. they are usually not the defaulters however they cause it due to their slow driving skills.

But seriously, it all needs to be taken in perspective. If there are more Pakistani drivers on the road then they will be responsible for more accidents, it doesn't mean they are the worst drivers though.

They need stats on the accidents in relation to the number of drivers of each country.

But it's all a joke anyway. Until they start patrolling the roads properly it doesn't matter. When you see a guy in a BMW 745 drive past a cop car at 190km/h and the cop does nothing you really have to wonder why they are there at all.

Totally agreed

agree on what???

I don't understand what is the problem with people getting offended if a car driving on 190 passing a cop car???

FYI, patrolling police cars does not monitor speeds... unless you are speeding and overtaking other cars or changing lanes in a dangerous way.

I have personally twice flashed a police car driving slow on the left lane on SZR... something rarely occurs... and they gave me the way... regardless what my speed was.

the Guy who drives 110km NEXT to the fast lane.

the Guy who talks on his moblie and only decides in the very last second to take the exit right FROM the 2 lanes away...

the Guy who flashs his lights at you just to go 1kph faster then you.

the Guy who flashs his lights at you WHEN THERE IS A TRAFFIC JAM !!

lemme add one more. women lack ability to calculate immediate possibilities around them while driving. many asian drivers behave the same way. that DOES make them bad drivers but not dangerous/worst drivers on road.

speeding, tailgating, changing lanes without indicators, racing are few causes of danger on roads, which are mainly done by arabs.

oh! oh!! oh!!!

that makes u also part of the problem. i'll not be surprised if u think otherwise as this problem has been there for a long time at a constant ratio.

Man's brain is 10% larger than woman's one. This additioanal part is responsible for better orientation. That's why men are better drivers and soccer players.

Quatro's got a point there Choco.

Partially true.
