Driving Tips for Dubai
Once you pick up your car rental in Dubai, you can get on the road right away. Study these tips and tricks to help your drive go smoothly:
- Toll Roads: Dubai has several toll roads, including Al Garhoud Bridge, and all tolls are collected electronically via a sticker called Salik.
- Right on Red: In Dubai, do not turn right on red unless there is a yield sign at that particular intersection.
- Keep Calm: Swearing or gesturing at other drivers is punishable by public indecency laws in Dubai, so it’s best to keep your cool.
- Use Local Apps: RTA Smart Drive is an app specifically designed to help you navigate through the roads and traffic in Dubai, so it’ll be the most reliable.
These and our other tips for driving in Dubai will be useful during your rental period.
