This Thread is a followup of my previous thread found at the following link:

- CAMPAINGN AGAINST AGRESSIVE DRIVERS -

In referance to the link above that i have posted several weeks back, i would like to followup with the following ideas. I have reached a point where the initiation of this campaign is found to be extremely nessasary, and i have begun to research our eligability in begining such a campaign in Qatar. If successful, we will need to achieve the following:

- Try to register to accept donations by people or funding from the ministry
- A heap load of volunteers will be needed who will:
- Educate kids at schools of the dangers of bad driving
- Hand over flyers to people in shopping malls and in other public places
- Hold weekly progress meetings
- Research effective ways of advancing the cause.
- Build a website that will detail our cause, highlight our rights as locals or residends
- keep up with the chiefs of police to make sure our campaign is actually making a differance.
- uphold meetings with the ministry of interior
- campaign for licence suspensions for recurring offenders who would have to take and pass a road education examination to be given the right to return on the roads.
- campaign to empower police to pull people over on a regular basis for any offences regardless of whether they are locals or expatriates.
- introduce the use of radar guns on the roads
- educate people on strapping their children down in seat belts/car seats.
- convince the ministry to record offences to peoples ID numbers rather than the vehicle tag (so that each person is taking responsability for their actions rather than the vehicle owner, and will put an end to having people distribute their points to other people's licences)

The campaign will focus on educatating people on avoiding dangerous driving habbits as well as a reporting system on our website that would record each incident and forward it to the traffic department at the ministry of interior. It would also indicate to people where to go to make an official traffic incident complaint (since its unclear where to go to report such incidents).

The following points were made my commenters in my last thread that i want to clarify:

- First of all, it is NOT a cultural norm to drive dangerously in this country
- it is NOT acceptable to be put at risk by aggressive drivers on these roads.
- it is NOT ok for the local police not to be enforcing the law on aggressive drivers
- this campaign is NOT against locals. I do apologise for my thread seeming like that is what i was saying. The problem lies a lot with the expat population as well.
- you DO have rights in this country that the Qatari government upholds to entitle you to for being part of their expat population, as well as if you are a local.
- Such driving habbits in this country are against the respectful nature that Islam teaches you to have with humanity.
- The idea of 'deal with it or go home' is ridiculous (Note: if you have such a mentality, thank you for your comments, but i don't think you would be effective campaigning with us)
- we are not dreaming. We are well awake and insist on making this happen.
- driving is a privilege, not a right. If you break the rules, u should be stripped of that privilege.

COMMENTS ARE WELCOME

I will update you on my findings shortly...
