Lol! I was in Dubai and Abu Dhabi over at X-Mas time. My brother lives in Abu-Dhabi so he warned me about all the speed traps. As long as you are going a max of 20km/hr over the posted limit, you're ok. Didn't get any speeding tickets thankfully!

I have a solution for you; take your car to the Yas Marina circuit and open it up every one in a while, especially on the nice long straight they have there!

Speed cameras in dubai shoot from the front, but in abu dhabi they shoot from the back!

Plus while its true that you can go up to 20kph over the limit, i noticed the 991 doesnt keep your speed very accurately, it tends to go up by one or down by one all the time.... so i keep it at 19kph over

Thanks i plan to do so very soon...

Or one of these....with just 40 HP you're not going to break any land speed records and you're still in a Porsche!



Ah yes, but these are how you say..... EXPENSIVE

When was this? Recently there have been a hell of a lot of hidden and mobile speed traps so things have really calmed down.
