The quality of highways in Dubai is impeccable. When compared to roads in Russia, it's just worlds apart.

It's only natural that the perfectly smooth road surface is a real temptation for the Russian tourists; however, we still recommend keeping your emotions in check and keep yourself well in hand. Fines for road traffic offenses in Dubai could drain your purse very rapidly.

BLACK POINTS

We'll start off by mentioning an unusual method of registering road traffic offenses  the so-called Black Points. If a driver is given 24 or more Black Points over a year, they will be stripped of their driver's license for 3 months. If it happens again, the license revocation period will be twice as long  up to six months. The third time, the license will be revoked for a year and will only be returned if the driver successfully passes a driving course. Black Points are only used for drivers with local driver's licenses, but it won't hurt if tourists also know about this system.
