Doha outskirts a death knell

Walking on public roads in the outskirts is a death knell. Many young drivers are at the wheel while using mobile phone or eating (not during Ramadaan). They never head for pedestrians, and the road network is like a cob-web. It is everywhere, you cant imagine from which side the demons arrive, and they never use signals. When you want to cross the road, wait at a bumper until they rush, or put your hand on and stop them before you enter the road.
Yesterday, I saw an old gent stopped his car, even not at a bumper, and gesturing a man to cross, that was on Muither Commercial street.
