  1. So sorry to hear about your spouse. Living with a long time injury really sucks. I can understand. Thats the most important thing nobody ever gets. That, the moment you choose to use your phone whilst driving it's not only you but you are endangering everyone around you. I don't understand why is it so difficult to fathom? How important is really that call or text that one has to risk at so many levels? For texting, there are apps for calling there are hands-free gadgets. People seem to spend a fortune buying expensive phones but never pay to buy an app or headset... that's the epitome of stupidity.
  2. Wow thats a beauty!! May i ask how much did it cost? I know a guy in Sharjah. He is very resourceful maybe he can help. You can call and ask. Mubashir - 0502282974 See Also
  3. How to Whatsapp or Text while driving: 3 Easy steps. 1. Buy a Tesla. Engage the autopilot and text until your battery drains off. 2. Employ a full-time Chauffer. Yes they are availble here in Dubai. 3. If you can't afford one, give the phone to your wife/girlfriend/sister/brother/parent whoever the hell is sitting next to you while driving and let them text for you. Please never ever text and drive. Please don’t even touch your ducking phone while driving. There has been a plethora of research and studies conducted on the negative impacts of texting while driving. Motor vehicle crashes are among the top two causes of injury death throughout a person’s lifetime.3 They also are the No. 1 cause of work-related death. In 2010, an estimated minimum of 160,000 crashes involved texting or emailing, versus 1.1 million crashes involving talking on cell phones. If you are still insistent and think that you were born to do multitasking and endanger pedestrians and your fellow passengers live while driving please at least consider using the following apps, which assist you to reduce your phone usage whilst driving.

  4. True that. Really thoughtful and engaging write-up. Keep it up @Rahimdad. ! Maybe one day you might have your own book. Dubai to Dunes - A book of adventures in the desert by Rahimbhai.
  5. Try to get maximum footage from rear mounted camera, it looks awesome. ! Camera on the dashboard showing the rear side of the car is no fun to watch. Also hope to see some drone shots too soon.. Gaurav bhai.
  6. Maybe this might help decide the dates for everyone.. Friday is most preferable i think.
  7. @Rahimdad , Looking forward to meet you too and plan a trip. I am no expert, am just an adventure seeker. I take the road less traveled. Btw the route which i have mentioned is not a Wadi drive its a normal highway going all the way to Fujairah. Also the drive to Showka Dam is a normal road there is no danger of landslide or any such mishap along the way. I was just there last weekend. Anyway this was just a suggestion if you have any shutterbugs in your group as its a more scenic drive. If possible will try join you guys.
  8. @Gaurav An alternate and interesting route to consider would be taking the sharjah kalba road. This is a newly built road with tunnels on the way. Its a very scenic drive as well. Also on the way you can pass by Wadi Shawka Dam which a nice picnic spot.
  9. The supercar was impounded when its owner - a pilot - was stopped at a check-point after officers noticed it had a fake number plate.Despite a series of appeals, the devastated owner has been unable to halt the destruction of the luxury car. The destruction of the vehicle ends a three-year legal battle to save it after the owner was stopped in 2013 in accordance with Taiwanese traffic laws.Ironically the Murcielago takes its name from a famous fighting bull which survived being stabbed with a sword 24 times. Italian manufacturer Lamborghini - which regularly takes its creations' names from bullfighting -  built just 4,099 Murcielagos, ending its run in 2010. In a continuation of Lamborghini's tradition of naming its cars after stars from the world of bullfighting, the Murciélago is named for a fighting bull that survived 24 sword strokes in an 1879 fight against Rafael "El Lagartijo" Molina Sánchez, at the Coso de los califas bullring in Córdoba, Spain. Murciélago fought with such passion and spirit that the matador chose to spare its life, a rare honor. The bull, which came from Joaquin del Val di Navarra's farm, was later presented as a gift to Don Antonio Miura, a noted local breeder; thus began the famed Miura line of fighting bulls, and the name for one of Lamborghini's greatest designs. Murciélago is the Spanish name for the bat. In the Castilian Spanish spoken in most of Spain the word is pronounced [muɾˈθjelaɣo], with a voiceless dental fricative [θ] (as in English thing). However, the Italian automaker often uses the Southern Spanish and Latin American Spanish pronunciation, [muɾˈsjelaɣo], with an sound. Many people in Italy pronounce it [murˈtʃeːlaɡo], as if it were an Italian word.
  10. We drove to Al Qua'a desert to shoot the Milkyway. That region of the desert is almost with zero light pollution and hence a very good location to do night photography. The area is surrounded by beautiful dunes very photographic.
  11. Yeah,I have been there.. its the 2nd highest mountain in UAE. The drive up there is not for a beginner as the roads can get very steep. But once up there the view is amazing. The road access to the top is restricted. The climb up till the military check point is amazing with all those steep and quirky hairpin bends. Jabal Yibir (Arabic: جبل يبر‎‎) is a 1,527 m (5,010 ft) tall mountain in the United Arab Emirates. It is located in the Hajar Mountains near 25°40′0″N 56°8′0″E. The highest point in the UAE is Jebel Jais (Ras Al Khaimah) at about 1,910 m just across the border from Jabal Bil Ays in Oman.
  12. Am in too! Just share the time and location, ill be there !
  13. Flying radar can track speedsters from air Speed radar might soon be installed in the latest Dubai Police drone By Majorie van Leijen Published Wednesday, October 15, 2014 A speed radar installed in a drone that flies over Dubai's roads is one of the options Dubai Police is considering to tighten the grip on speedsters in the emirate.The drone has already been built, and is capable of carrying a speed radar if such measures are to be implemented, explains Maher bin Haidar, of the General Department of Protective Security and Emergency at Dubai Police.Showing the latest and, according to him, the most advanced drones that the authority has in hand at the ongoing Gitex Technology week, he says, "This drone can capture images from a kilometre distance with its capacity to zoom in 60 times,” he explained.“It can fly for two hours, and can be controlled at a distance of 2km with a remote control." http://www.emirates247.com/news/emirates/flying-radar-can-track-speedsters-from-air-2014-10-15-1.566300

  18. http://www.thenational.ae/uae/uae-motorsports-enthusiasts-advocate-test-for-vehicle-safety Motorsports enthusiasts are advocating a centralised testing centre to ensure modified ­vehicles are safe, adhere to ­emission and noise limits, and comply with the law. “I feel the best way to regulate the registration of modified cars is by having a vehicle testing centre, just like any other vehicle would have to go through,” said Kamui Mahtani, 27, a Dubai ­resident from Japan who owns a modified Honda S2000. “The major difference is that it would also check each of the components that have been modified and its safety.” For instance, the power output of a vehicle would be checked and compared with a standard vehicle. Brakes would be tested to calculate if the car has sufficient stopping power to match the engine power, he said. “Suspensions, wiring and every component of the vehicle would be checked in detail for safety,” he said. “Making sure the car is not too loud is also very important.” Adnan Khalil, who has had work done on his Honda Accord since 2009, agreed. “There should be a separate section for modified cars ­because after-market modifications both should be safe and legal,” said the 29-year-old, who is a sales consultant at a used car workshop in Dubai. “A lot of people don’t understand what’s legal and what’s not, and a lot of car modifications aren’t safe.” In Abu Dhabi, 6,630 vehicles were impounded last year because of modifications that increase vehicle noise.
  19. This is a diesel model does that mean it was imported?? Any ideas on what year model this is?
