Ok guys, lets hear it! How bad is the traffic there? Are you late a lot because of it? Is the government doing anything about it that will matter in the near future? Shall I bring my Merc C Class or is it going to be trashed?
scarlett.. i know what u are talking about.. i haven't had even one accident during my over 12 years of driving... ...in Doha i fixed my car already 3 times during 10 months!
my brand new SUV now has three big dents (happened while it was parked), a huge scratch on the passenger side (no idea where that came from)and the paint on the rear bumper has been scraped off - all of this in a month even though I drive carefully (but not everyone does!).
dents, scratches, dings, bashes ARE goingto happen. My hubby is the world's most careful with his 750 bmw but even in just parking lots, he's gotten huge scratches and dents from others raking their grocery carts or car doors into it...
Grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked,the good fortune to run into the ones I do,and the eyesight to tell the difference.

Roger,Sir!

(ahihihihihi...)
Hm, I get it. No dents, thanks.
LOL
Drac, don't start making "cheap" points!
ahihihihiihihi :)
ouch,my head...i need some aspirin
no, fatcat. A dent is sort of a "violent intrusion".
LOL, MD. Does cellulite count as dents? :\
Fatcat, you should be extremely worried if "you" get dents.
I know ... you just being your normalself. Nothing to worry about.
Oh, MD, now I get it.
My car is rented, so it's not like I really care if I get dents anyway ;)
LOL, Novi, I'm with you! Was just being my normal sarchy self, lol.
Sweet Fatcat, as long as you drive it's okay. It's when you park the car and shop for hours and hours. That's when the dents happen.
what choice do you have Fatcat, is not like you can just hop into a bus or train / tube to go to other places conveniently.
With all the road dag up everywhere, driving in Doha is really a pain ...
MD, that's what we're doing wrong... We're actually driving the cars :)
You're going the wrong places, qatarisun. No shopping, no dents.

Gye .... at least in London you can take tube or bus if yo dont want to driver.
Over here the public transportation is sucks.
No ... it cant stop me doing things because my son still hv to go to school and i have to do some other stuffs.
Thanks guys. Can you tell me a bit more about what the trafic is like? Does it stop you doning things, is it worse than say London?
Thanks,
Gye

be extra careful while driving and parking in Doha. you can minimize the risk of having dent on your car.

lol Fatcat ... you should see my car ....
It totally depends on what time you want to go out. Traffic at night is terrible. At 7am, it's ok.
No matter what car you have here, it'll get dented and scratched. That's a guarantee.
Btw, I love when I see adds on QL that says: as good as new, no dents or scratches. Sorry, I just don't believe that!
Gye ... in Doha ... the bigger the better ....
