When will Qatar drivers realize these facts ?
Police in Abu Dhabi issued 128 tickets to motorists last year for driving below the minimum speed limit.
Driving slower than the minimum speed limit causes traffic jams and crashes Brigadier Hussain Al Harithi, Director of the Traffic and Patrol Directorate at Abu Dhabi Police, said in a statement yesterday.
..................
He also said they should keep their focus on the traffic and stay in the designated lanes .

What's a "minimum" speed ...What's a "minimum" speed "limit"? And what if the circumstances don't allow to drive faster? Idiots are everywhere.

Minimum Speed is... ...We will see the minimum speed limit only on the major highways and not at the common streets or roads. In the international traffic laws, it is set at 80 Kph- minimum and 120Kph- maximum. It is really illegal to run on the highways below 80 Kph. This will cause accident because all the cars and trucks are running at high speed.

That's not true. If there is ...That's not true. If there is heavy fog and you go 80 km/h you will cause an accident. If there is water on the road, you will go water-skiing over 80 km/h!

I agree with you Lincoln... ...In circumstances like that, we need to drive slower.

What do you do if traffic in front of you stands still on any road ?
Do you drive backwards ?

there is no fine for low ...there is no fine for low speed in Doha. there is traffic obstruction fine of 1500QR. but that is for stationary vehicle blocking the traffic (road accident not clearing the way, not moving at green light...)

Be careful ...Always drive carefully in snow especially if it rains and then freezes again, black ice is almost invisible and very dangerous. Not recommended to go much above 50 km/h in such conditions.
