That is common sense as well because I know these countries have the technology for it, but people still drive stupid regardless. So when I see a video like this one I just cant be so extremely sad and worried because it could have been prevented with just a little bit of thinking. That is the point I was trying to make.

[felando2002]

In the states these types of traffic accidents are really rare (tho i will say that a lot of city folk are stupid on ice) and our drifters are on courses we speed but it seldom leads into sever car crashes. And, the videos of some intersections out there are horrifying! People running into each other all day when all that is needed is a stop light with a pedestrian crosswalk!

[felando2002]

but, in a lot of these videos you see people just fucking with the cops and the cops all they do is have their lights on and in some spots they (drifters) take up the whole highway with a crew of 20 or more and there is no law enforcement in sight. And I do have some sympathy for the people in that crash but common sense would tell you that if you cant see the highway then slow down.

thats generalizing! arab drift is shit, yes. but as yourself called it, its ARAB drift, its not necessarily in UAE. highway enforcement is quite good around here. radars every 2 km, portable radars are put up everyday at unknown locations, patrol cars roam around the highways a lot and theres the undercover patrol cars, which are very difficult to recognize, because they use a lot of very different cars so they blend in. research before pointing out stuff sir

hey, i remember that one! it was during the fog season. people here really dont realize they have to adapt their driving to foggy/rainy scenarios. on that one, someone was going around 140(km/h) while the fog would only allow you to see something around 30 meters ahead, so yeah, just add it up now.
