Sick & Tired

Guys, how many times you see policemen or people in uniform using mobile phone while driving, or jumping queues, or using pavements to beat the traffic? Are they above the laws or they are untouchable? I’m sick of this !!!!

Thanks for posting this. it is true. it is shameful to say we can see many people (Locals, expats) driving without following safety rules, defensive driving...etc.

I can realise many people talking in mobile and driving at the same time even new traffic law was enforced hard in October 2007. I can imagine people (not all) were afraid to mobile talk and drive at the same time just for a month immediately after new law.

this is so true, they think they are untouchable but there's nothing we can do, so we have to cope with it. we are all sick and tired.

The laws are for expats, not for Qataris.

Hopeless/Helpless...... right....?

I think this is everywhere, only the number varies from place to place. Some thinks they are better than others by doing things like as you specified. I have seen these things all the time wherever I go. But can't do anything. Hope to see more matured people around soon.
