Hi, in Qatar accidents are not caused by the car or speed or bad roads or weather. accidents caused by stupid reckless drivers from what I see I can tell you the following:

- most accidents happened at low speed.
- not leaving enough distance between cars.
- getting out from parking without paying attention
for incoming traffic.
- side hit when some idiot change lane without
checking traffic on both sides.
- hit from behind on a light signal.

- so many accidents are caused by Qataris, and the last
increase of traffic fines was just to stop Qataris
drivers.
if you notice that they did not put the seatbelt until
the fine become what it is now.
a lot of accidents happened when the go to dunes
ridding and when the play "who is checking game".

- so many accidents are caused by Indians, Pakistanis and
Nepalis because they are used to drive to the left side
of the road, and they still confused for a long period.
if you notice sometimes when they want to cross the
road the look to the right side and that cause a lot of
hitting accidents.

- driving schools here concentrate on parking test and L
test and they forget that the most important thing is
to prepare the student to drive in the real world.
