What are the key safety rules to follow when driving in dusty conditions or during a sandstorm in the UAE?

According to Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA), motorists should follow five essential safety rules during dust storms: reduce speed and keep a safe distance, switch on headlights for visibility, close windows and use the car’s internal air circulation, avoid sudden lane changes, and pull over safely if visibility drops drastically. With sand affecting tyre grip and strong winds reducing sightlines, these steps are crucial for safety. Have you ever driven through a sandstorm in the UAE? What was your experience like, and how did you stay safe?
