Car Rental Dubai - What You Need to Know Before Going on the Road
- 1. Car Rental Dubai - What You Need to Know Before Going on the Road Have you arranged for a car rental in Dubai? Do that before you fly to the Middle East's shopping capital. If there is anything at all that first-time visitors like you will need in Dubai, it's fast, safe, and inexpensive transportation. After all, how can you check out this emirate's 70 shopping malls without a car to take you around? Here's a quick guide to driving in this city-state so you'll know what to expect before you go on the road. 1. Do not assume junction numbers are ordered logically. They're not, especially when you take main roads like the Sheikh Zayed. For instance, Junction 13 comes after Junction 18! 2. Road names may be somewhat confusing. Don't be alarmed if you find slight spelling differences between the map and road signs. This is due to different Arabic transliterations. 3. Construction work take place with great regularity throughout Dubai so expect some re-routing here and there. This can make reaching your destination a bit challenging, but you should be fine with a good map on hand. 4. Dubai's GPS maps are not up-to-date. At least, they weren't the last time I drove a there. Play it safe by always having a printed map with you. You will find many excellent maps for sale in Virgin stores. 5. Do not ever drive while drunk. Dubai has zero tolerance for driving under the influence. Those caught violating this will be fined stiffly or maybe even jailed or deported! There are many things to do and even more things to see in this emirate. Make the most out of your visit to this city-state by arranging for a car rental in Dubai.
