The UAE has some of the best roads in the world, and driving is one of the easiest ways to explore. Keep these essentials in mind.

• Drive on the right; overtake on the left
• Seatbelts are mandatory for everyone
• Using a phone without hands-free is a fineable offence
• Speed limits are strictly enforced by camera

Use a navigation app for live traffic. Fuel is inexpensive and stations are everywhere. Parking in cities is often paid — apps make it easy.
