Practical Information for Drivers
Traffic Laws
In Sharjah, the usual rules of the road apply, as in most countries of the world:
- You must not drive a vehicle while intoxicated or under the influence of drugs;
- Always use seat belts;
- You must not talk on a mobile phone while driving;
- Do not exceed the speed limit.
It is not recommended to enter into a conflict with a traffic police officer - in most cases, their decision is not open to discussion.
Speed Limit
Depending on the type of road, Sharjah is subject to certain speed limits. Do not neglect these rules, because speed cameras and radars are common on the city roads.
Speed limits:
- Within the city, do not exceed 60 km/h;
- On motorways - no faster than 100 km/h;
- On some highways - 120 km/h.
Allowable alcohol
The UAE takes the consumption of alcoholic beverages by drivers very seriously. Sharjah is no exception - while driving, motorists are not allowed to consume alcohol in any quantity. The maximum permitted blood alcohol level is 0.0 ppm. A substantial fine is imposed for violations.
The cost of fuel
One of the advantages of driving in Sharjah is the balance of fuel cost and quality. With the high quality of petrol and service at filling stations, fuel prices are quite low:
- To purchase 1 litre of petrol you will need $0.47;
- To purchase 1 litre of diesel - $0.79.
Moreover, filling station staff do everything for you: they fill up the petrol, take payment, clean the windscreen and check the tyre pressure.

What drivers say about Sharjah
"We booked online for our weekend in Sharjah and everything went smoothly. The car was spotless, nearly new, and exactly the size we’d reserved. Pick‑up from the airport counter was quick, staff were polite and explained tolls clearly. Drop‑off took just a few minutes. Very happy as a couple."
"We rented a car with friends for a short stay in Sharjah and had a great experience. Fast paperwork, clean car, and easy return. Only wish there were clearer signs for the drop‑off area."
"I picked up the car in Sharjah for a business trip and was impressed by how organised everything was. Staff were friendly and the vehicle was in excellent condition. The only minor issue was a short wait at the counter during a busy time, but overall it was excellent."
