Focus in your driving and enjoy it.

One tip though, train well on taking roundabouts here because it is different than the system in Syria (if you have driven there).

In Qatar, priority is for cars which are already inside the roundabout.

Good luck

Drive on Friday early Morning . You can drive on any road on friday early morning . Take care that your speed do not exceed above 80 km/ hr . When you see green signal REDUCE your speed . When ever you press brake always look back . If you are confused at any moment just press EMERGENCY light so that other drivers can take care . Follow the line specially at Round about . Dont change your line at round about . Show direction light when u want to exit round about .

Best Of Luck
