Driving in Dubai
Hi everyone and a happy New Year to you all. Newbie here...
My DH and I are waiting to hear whether he has secured a position in the Dubai office of his company. We have been told he is likely to be successful, so are starting to gather our thoughts and questions about a move across in the not too distant future. If he is successful, he will be working daily in Internet Park and I will be a stay-at-home-mum with our 2 boys under 10 in a local school.
We have been talking about cars...
How do most of you get around? Do you have your own vehicle or do you have a driver?
Do you tend to have one vehicle per family which the mum (if stay-at-home) has during the day? If so, how does your DH get to work - taxi, driver??
How is the traffic there these days? I have heard a couple of years back it was horrendous, but am wondering if it's settled down now new roads have been laid etc. Presumably if the driving is mad a bigger car might be better???
How easy is it to find places? Do GPS's work OK in Dubai or is the city still changing so quickly they are useless?
Would welcome any thoughts or experiences you have to offer on the topic of driving in Dubai and cars etc.
TIA
