Reckless driving in the Gulf States causes the deaths of over 8,000 people a year in road accidents.

Al Jazeera's John Cookson reports from Qatar, where the authorities have introduced speed cameras to cope with the problem.

  • @afrikanthug101 u are nigger

  • ARABS ARE DUMB AND STUPID.

  • Its not about speed its about madness, I was in germany they drive more than 200Km/h on two lanes roads only!! I'm always thinking why there in Germany no much accidents but in GCC alot of accidents. So I analysis that in GCC alot of asian people were they didn't drive before in thier countries and came to GCC to work as drivers and practice driving for the first time in GCC!!

  • dumb ass drivers here...too much

  • YOU IDIOTS ARE U CRAZY!!!!! IFUR SO BORED GO READ A BOOK OR SOMETHING!

  • @wae4uihawertgirna Qatar is a great country and the people too, the only thing i hate here is the roads the police dont control the roads and the people drive like mad men, no manners and dangerously, they dont understand they are murderers for their irresponsible driving its murder no excuse

  • "For most people in the gulf states life is pretty good", no not at all. Qatar is definitely one of the most depressing countries for most of the people I know that come here for work from Europe or America. And I'm sure we make it worse for the Qataris, too.

  • @arte100 try living in qatar as i do the driving is crazy u nearly have a crash every tim u go out

  • First of all, that 4x4 smoked lambo, madness :) ,

    second of all i don't think that is 200km/h, the gauges look like it should say 200mph, besides why is so extreme to drive 200km/h??? And last but not least, it's funny when you see these crappy cars on roads and then Merc, Hummer, GMC drive past :D:D

  • 1:24 fail!!
