Hi There

I will be working in Qatar and Dubai and Abu-Dabi

Whats the deal on driving I have seen on various info sites that with a UK licence I can just turn up and drive

Would any one recommend that or is usual ex pat behavior to have a few lessons with a local driving school to familiarize myself with the local roads

I would greatly appreciate any answers

Thanks Sean

Where u staying???

one post and you're coming on to him already...must be a record...

MM, xx

Think you have me confused with confi.....

No, she's not...I usually give a grace period of 24-48 hours, regardless of post count of the victim...

Thought you might have decided to go for the disgrace period with this one... seeing how things are quiet...

It's alright...I always have bigger fish to fry...

Explains the smell......

That's the closest you're gonna get to the real fish...

If you get residency in one of those places, the answer will be different...

Shit, I'm going blind. I totally missed the answer!

You can drive on your biritsh driving licence if you don't have a resedency in that country. But if you do, you would need to convert your british driving licence and its only valid in that middle eastern country
