who lived in Southern California for over 10 years(freeway driving) and Houston for 5, I can honestly say that Qatar driving is the worst ever. Although London and Rome are pretty bad as well. Here in Doha you have drivers from all over the world thrown together. Many have no clue that there are such things as rules. Put that together with absolutely no enforcement of laws and many who act like bullies in their cars, you have a dangerous mix of driving styles. If you are a confident, aggressive, experienced driver who has a lot of common sense and can keep your cool while driving you will be fine. Inexperienced drivers should not take to the roads here, it would be foolish. Good luck.
