1. Arabs are disproportionately involved in fatal accidents.
2. Arabs make up some 19% of all drivers' license holders.
3. The main reasons for accidents involving drivers from the Arab society are: disobeying traffic lights, driving at excessive speed, not keeping a distance, not giving the right of way, crossing between lanes and disobeying traffic signs.
4. "When a normal citizen receives a driving license, his life turns upside down. When a driver in Arab society receives a driving license, he continues to drive."
[BTW: Arabs in Israel are some 83% Muslim, then come the Druze and then a smaller percentage Christians].
Who cares? It’s Israel.
I’ve been to quite a few places on God’s green earth and I’ve seen some scary drivers.
Kuwait was the craziest when it comes to drivers. I practically felt like kissing the ground every time I arrived at Point B in Kuwait unscathed.
Kuwait..good to kmow.
Long story short...I just about soiled my underwear...many times...driving on the UAE's highways.Mainly because of tailgaters and drivers suddenly changing lanes without signaling.
See Post #5
There’s car crash vids from all over. As bad as FL drivers can be it’s worse in other parts of the world
And all that ks without alcohol there (per religion, in geneal),
... which means, more intentional recklessness...
You probably don’t mean South FL?
Why wouldn't everyone want to drive when they get their driving license?
Does “license” mean “ticket,” in Israel?
Sounds a lot like Italy!.......................
What’s fun is driving two weeks in Montreal without understanding French and without GPS directions.
Yes.
Yep. UAE is pretty crazy, as is Jordan. And in Baghdad, it’s not unusual to see people drive on the sidewalks to get around something.
In Kuwait, they do all of that craziness at about 100 mph.
With traffic circles. 😱

Ce vrai.
It long ago occurred to me that our entire system of driving safety is predicated on the idea that every car is driven by someone who holds the value of his life and that of his family above all other things. That’s the only thing that allows us to use a pair of painted lines to keep cars going in opposite directions on the same road from smashing into each other in what would invariably be fatal collisions.
It occurred to me at the same time that if each of us can’t assume that oncoming drivers value their lives as much as we do, the whole system of road design in the United States breaks down.
Because they are flooding this country like a tsunami.

On a side note, I’ve driven in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Jordan. Traffic laws....ha ha ha. Jordan was pretty close to the US, especially in Amman. Outside of the city, good luck. You definitely do not want these folks behind the wheel. Trust me.
