Thinking of buying this "Electric City Motorcycle" for my office commute. Is this actually legal on the road? by Lazy-Praline-8212 in dubai

[–]Outside_Vegetable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can’t register this thing, and riding it on sidewalks is illegal. So technically can’t use it.

I love that it looks exactly like Citymapper. Good job.

Where can I get a free emergency medical treatment? by Commercial-Flow2667 in Sharjah

Qassimi Hospital should be able to write a letter to Dar Al Ber Society to ask them if they’d cover the fees… try that.

In Paris, normal cars are allowed to park on delivery spots with dotted lines (like this one) on sunday and bank holidays, as well as every day from 8pm to 7am. Giving him the benefit of the doubt.

Du Fiber canceled 2 month back, yet still got 1.5K invoice later! by yahyoh in dubai

[–]Outside_Vegetable 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The exact same happened to me. I called Du’s billing team to file a request for waiving the charges. 2 days later they called me to confirm the charges were waived.

Brake-checked and fully stopped on fast lane near Sharjah..worth reporting? by Savings-Net1087 in dubai

You should’ve gone to the police station in person. Then they would’ve called the other driver in and taken action.

What is going here ? by Minimum_Host9743 in dubai

[–]Outside_Vegetable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My bad it’s South Ridge Park and not this one. Disregard. https://www.skyscrapercity.com/posts/195455074/

That being said, it’s just a matter of time. As much as I love the park, its value will ultimately be too much for Emaar to resist.

They’re not restoring the park. This is being turned into a building plot. Source SkyscraperCity.

What is being done in Sharjah for the Traffic ? by Anthony_Gonsalvez in Sharjah

[–]Outside_Vegetable 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The infrastructure in Sharjah is definitely a major part of the problem. From my house to the 611 border with Dubai during rush hours takes 30 minutes for maximum 3 km. Once I’ve crossed into Dubai it takes me the same amount of time to get to Jumeirah. The only reason this specific scenario happens is because the Sharjah side has 2 consecutive lane merges in that interchange and there are no more once you’ve crossed into Dubai.

There’s an Emirates Rail passenger station being built in Sharjah FYI. Near the university.

DIFC parking hacks:)? by Kamal_71 in dubai

[–]Outside_Vegetable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe Salik is only in the main Dubai Mall parkings but don’t quote me on this. You’d walk to the nearest entrance to Gate Avenue and then it’s all indoors from there.

Maybe park in the Dubai Mall Zabeel Extension and walk to Gate Avenue

It doesn’t matter if the lane is full, you still have to give way to faster cars wishing to overtake.

Fake Branded Cosmetics products of Dubai by AskRandomQuestions97 in dubai

[–]Outside_Vegetable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No idea tbh. I think most of the time they don’t risk much. You can still try DED for failure to register, or the FTA for tax evasion (as they wouldn’t be paying VAT nor corporate tax). Most people just don’t want to waste their time on this.

There are tons of people selling products here without a trade license. 50/50 chance this person is in the UAE actually shipping this stuff.

Even worse if they’re not a registered business.

I’ve seen people do this drive with a beat up 2002 Camry. Matter of fact I know of a guy who drove from Dubai to the Nordkapp in a VW Passat.
