Almost learned this the hard way on the way to Abu Dhabi

[daniel.sullivan]

I had a moment of panic last week driving back from Abu Dhabi. My fuel light came on and I realized I had no idea where the next petrol station was, and traffic was terrible. It got me thinking about what I would actually do if I ran out, especially on a highway in this heat. When I got home, I looked up some emergency refueling tips for drivers and found a really detailed guide. It explains everything from the moment your car starts to sputter, like turning on hazard lights immediately and safely pulling over. It also covers the legal stuff I had no idea about, like the 1,000 dirham fine for blocking traffic and the requirement to place warning triangles 100 meters behind your car on highways. Really useful information that every driver here should know.
