Re: 630
And the answer is the number of crashes in the rain. 630 in one day, 330 of which in Dubai. At least the police came out and said that it wasn't due to the poor design of roads (bizarre proposition anyway) but to "careless" driving. I got 1/4 way from Dubai to AD and turned round, scared half-shitless. How can you have a job good enough to afford/be given a decent car yet not have sufficient brainpower to drive with just a bit of caution?
Frightening figure that. Not surprising but frightening nonetheless.

Re: 630
I was gobsmacked and totally amazed I didn't see 1 accident between DXB & AD at 7am to 8.30am.......less in fact than a normal sunny morning! Maybe they were there I just couldn't see them as you could barely see the road let alone what carnage may have been on the hard shoulders

The price in pence (well, 20p short) that I just paid to upgrade my return from London to Dubai to business class.
Mum, I've made it.
