U Dubaiju boravi preko 250 različitih nacionalnosti, simim time postoji isto toliko uvezenih prometnih kultura. Poznata je stvar da neke nacionalnosti u matičnim zemljama voze suprotnom stranom kolnika, većina ih ovdje nije obavezna polagati vozački ispit nego samo konvertiraju vozačku dozvolu i tada su “good to go”. Koliko je to dobro s aspekta sigurnosti? Ne zna se, al srećom barem ne voze u krivom smjeru.
Različite kulture imaju različite vozačke navike iako su Zakoni više-manje usklađeni ili bi bar trebali biti. Tako neki vozači ne mogu zamisliti vožnju bez upotrebe zvučnih signala, dok drugi jednostavno nikad nisu upotrijebili ručicu pokazivača pravca, treći misle da voze ralicu po cesti i niz sličnih primjera.
Svi koji sudjeluju u prometu u Dubaiju a posebice vozači nerijetko svjedoče kojekakvim čudima koja se događaju na cesti u raznim prometnim situacijama. Da nebi bilo zablude, takvi svakodnevni prekršaji su definirani Zakonom i itekako mogu biti kažnjivi.
U nastavku vam donosimo pojednostavljenu tablicu prekršaja kao i predviđene kazne za iste.
