Only In Qatar










Here are some crazy photos of what the driving can be like and some results of the crazy driving here in Qatar. Quite how some of the crashes have occurred leaving the vehicles where they end up is beyond imagination. The only real explanation is it is due to the speed and included find a picture of one of Qatar's Police Vehicles provided just for high speed chases. The tipped over truck we came across not long after it had flipped onto its side. It is on a very major roundabout on the Corniche right outside the new and very impressive Islamic Art Centre and across the road from the Parliament Buildings. We have seen a car flipped in a car park and a 4WD that had rolled several times in a narrow one way street but sadly missed the photo opportunties. They are presently digging up our street and today some wally reversed at speed into a trench. His mates had to lift the car out and off they drove!!!
