This is major driving irritation in Qatar. when people need to overtake or passing another car and if, this car not able to move another side withing a second. this person will make sudden brake, once he overtake the second car...

It may cause to make accident.

the second car driver will get penalty also..because, he hit behind another car....hhhh
