I am a Qatari...that owns a land cruiser. I am aware of the generalizations that paint us all with the same brush, but let me assure you, I wear my seat belt and drive safely and according to the rules and laws of the Traffic police. Here, I am not defending nor am I attacking any one. There are somethings that need to be pointed out.
Firstly, there are crazy drivers in Qatar, and sadly some of them are Qatari. However, there are crazy drivers everywhere in the world, and the reason behind crazy driving may be the lack of education. Not all Qataris drive crazy. Many of us are educated and rational enough to understand the seriousness behind driving like a maniac.
However, sometimes, people driving here are not even Qatari. THERE IS A LOT OF THIS---many people dress exactly like Qataris do even though they may not even be Qatari, or even Arab! Some may be uneducated, poor, and probably did not grow up in the best of childhood environments. Although I have always believed in helping these people, I dislike the way they cast a bad light over us Qataris. Just wanted to say to you guys that generalize that not all of these people are actually from Qatar.
