Been to Kuwait many times and have seen the driving there. It's nothing compared to Qatar or Egypt, but the drivers there are less than cognizant at times...

May the driver and passenger rest in peace.

R.I.P to both driver and passenger. It is very sad that you loose friends, let alone a 23 year old and a 25 year old. My condolences to his family and friends.

+1. The drivers in Kuwait are horrible.

(not as bad as some places but they are not the best)

Seen people with kids (1yr old) with their hands on the steering wheel on highways (laws are different?), I used to slow down a bit just to examine and speculate exactly how a vehicle knocked over an electrical tower. I remember thinking almost everyday - how did that car get like that? Speed. That's how.

I used to get stuck in some traffic, don't worry - that doesn't mean you can't do 100mph on the shoulder. You guys in Kuwait know what I'm talking about.

The people crossing the highways on foot (6-8 lanes), while there is a catwalk a half mile down the road, get hit by a car doing 120mph+, and the car doesn't stop.

I've seen crazy stuff in Kuwait. I'm amazed I'm still alive.
