I just want to ask if is posiblle to ride scooter or a small motor bike for teenagers here in Doha. Do they need a drivers license for that?

Don't ever think about it. You will just give yourself worries. IT IS NOT SAFE FOR A TEENAGER OR EVEN FOR AN ADULT TO RIDE A SCOOTER. as they say, its a walking / rolling casket / coffin.

A BIG NO. Even when walking on sidewalks one needs to be careful from wayward and careless drivers. Just last night near Sheraton Doha, I saw a man lying lifeless on the ground hit by a car. He was driving a bike.

To be honest, the way people drive here, it's barely safe driving a car. People can be very reckless and careless driving here..
