When I pick up my boy from school, I do notice the occasional Western mother not belting her kids into their seats, but most do use child seats and boosters. I agree it's not just Qatari parents that are at fault, but in general I think Western expats are more conscious of the dangers.
What angers me are the drivers hired by parents to drive their kids home. They almost never restrain kids, and in the main part, drive like complete loons.
