12 deaths daily in traffic accidents in Saudi!!!



wow..sorry to hear that. :( i think we have the same prob here in malaysia.btw,may i know what are the main cause of traffic accidents in KSA.:?

hmm most of theme driving around 180-280km/h .it's normly thing see accident every day:(

Actually this applies to all the Gulf Area. We young people in the Gulf countries seem to think that being cool means driving fast and crazily. Qatar in fact has the world's highest road deaths per capita.... Its sad really that people loose there lives for no reason at all.

If this thread is going to have more traumatizing pictures (or videos) then I'm outta here!

^^:D

What is the speed limit on common Sreet and highways in Kingdom actually?

12 deaths only? I think the number is waaaay much more than that, not to mention the poor teachers (men/women) who teach at the villages and get killed in road accidents :ohno:

^^inside city 100km/h maxmam outside city 120km/h but who car:P but driving in high speed not the only reason there deadly game they love to play it calld TATES تطعيس ايش اسمها بالانجليزي؟؟ خخخخخخخخخخخ:nuts:

LOL Saudi Guy, I don't think "Tat'ees" is that harmful, at least I didn't see anybody died out of it, maybe you mean Tajdee3:nuts: <---- now that is harmful.

P.S. ATTENTION to all new drivers in KSA:
stay away from most Hiluxes AKA "Waneets" <----They don't no how or where to drive
and stay away from most Camry owners <---they think they're driving Air jets

That's really horrible. But I don't know why drivers in Saudi are crazy about speed especially the young ones.

^^Halawala sed in qatar the same it's looks all Gulf country have the same problem!!!

these accident was in north beach that who make it sed he was driving around 80km/h<<(:blahblah: :blahblah: :blahblah: )and suddenly he see young boy in road then he left in lake side and flo on it!!!!!i dont get it his car was flo in back side how that???
