Is It illegal to wash your car in public view?
By LAMBORJEEPNEY •
I was washing my car in my allotted parking slot in the ground floor of our bldg facing the road (I was doing this for the last 3 yrs every Friday). Yesterday a local pull over his famous LC in front of our building and told me to stop washing my car as it is illegal and could be finned QR 15,000.00. I asked him why it is illegal. And he replied that the water used for washing the car is precious and should not be wasted.
What to do yani. I have to go to the carwash service (in long queue) when I can do this at home easily in lessthan 30mins.
ofcourse now adays claning cars in public is not modern ....The First Mobile car wash service in Qatar ALL WITHOUT WATER...is HIWASH.COM , they come to your place and clean your car with a reasonable price,,,,saving time & Effort with unbeleivable result!!!!!!!!!!!

Mila - Sorry it should have been in the other thread about Singapore

My new SUV is great! she's gorgeous! and I'd love to keep her clean and tidy. Over the weekend people here in our compound are cleaning all their cars so we don't really have that problem.
Hey! Buddy maybe you should move to a different house, where it has it's own garage so you can wash your lovely SUV without any worries.

There is a Sri Lankan cargo company in old Mohomed Mustafa building. They have a brach here. The name is Trico. They are reliable.
Thanks, That was a great info. I can still wash my lamborjeepney with a bucket but still water will flow down the street which may caught the attentions of some concern citizen.
Yes, right on the spot ;-)
hows your new SUV? dont keep it tidy you might be fine with 15k;-)
the guy was exaggerating. You can wash your car at home reasonably. You'll be fined only if the water was overflowing to the street ( someone might report you in that).

LAMBORJEEPNEY is one of my good friend a happily married man with a loving wife and 3 children. He is Filipino obsess of Lamborghini but he can only afford Philippine Jeepney, so he combines the two name into LAMBORJEEPNEY. right LJ?

however you use it, must be conserved.And for car washing...sometimes we tempt to do such, but I think they have what they called "designated place" for that?
just don't the water flow on to the streets... but the bottomline in the matter is that you should not become a nuisance to your neighbours neither they to you...
wow good to know

has been around in Dubai for a long time now and it is enforced very strictly...
I think especially in flats, people do not appreciate when one resident dirties up the place with muddy water and you have no option but to step in the muddy water and then get in to the interior of your well groomed luxury car...
Teyseer Petrol Station near Decoration R/A washing underside is QR 40. Since when they kacked up the pri to QR 25.00? I will just give our cleaning boy QR 10.00 and get the car wash nicely.
If its a question about waisting water then who knows how much water is waisted in side big houses and small houses also(Specially bill free) due to water tab leaking and missuse while bath,wash and etc,so only that reasen is not enough. enjoy>
For your info, Teyseer charge 25 riyals now. I told them to wash under, but they cheated me, they did not wash under. They thought i was just inside the Baskin Robins sipping a hot coffee and not watching. I bring my car in Teyseer every after the rainy days to be cleaned under.
I must tell this Law to our cleaning boys at the apartment. They wash the car for QR 10.00 using water obtained from the fire Hose. They are getting a good side income :)
is not against cleaning you car, you are allowed to clean your own car... its against letting the water flow on to the streets and making it all muddy and slushy for pedestrians and other motorists... it can make other people's cars dirty... and the fine is 5000 or less if I am not wrong...
The Difference is at Home you use Treated water suitable for Drinking and at Petrol Station they use Industrial water which is less expensive to make.
I dont think its about wasting water, if it was then as PM said it makes no sense. It maybe because the dirty water stays on the road.
as nobody knows about this ruling. Thank god the gentleman warned me.
Mystica - How come no Philippino ur Philippina has not taken the nick name of famous JEEPNY ;)
Waqeed Petrol Stations and Petrol Staion near Decoration R/A. Qr 20 & 15 respectively.
There's a Petrol Station at the Burger round/about they only charges 15 Q.R. they will clean your car inside and outside. My maid clean our car every morning. I didn't know that it's against the law to clean your own car here! I hate to see my car dirty! I love my car, so I always look after her and keep her clean inside and outside.
It's great to be loved!
for you not to do it again?...if in doubt, just check online your violations.Sometimes we have to be considerate with their laws,this is their home. It is obvious that water cost more than petrol here:)
to the municipality.
I read about this few months ago that it is not allowed to wash car along the streets and or in public view. But did not know that the fine is that much. I don't understand why but i do my car wash with the guy at the Mandarin or Eli France Cafe parking for 10 riyals once a week. Maybe you can just wipe it with a damp cloth and wash your car for sometime outside.
Better not do it again:-( wheeeeeew QR 15K, i'd rather wait the long queue and pay the Qr 20. carwash fee.
not unless you get caught by the municipality or this new company kleen inspectors specially in the morning.
