Roy: You are new to QL. Please don't follow the comments of Molten Metal as she loves to misguide people and gets some form of enjoyment from doing so. She has been doing this for several years now.
Please don't allow yourself to be caught on the wrong foot. Pay a visit to any Traffic Police station and ask the captain. This will put you on a firm footing. You will be in a lot of trouble should a UAE driving license not be acceptable here in Qatar and you get caught driving Qatar.
