Crazy Driving Habits in Iran

[@DarbkooshkSarayBB]

Your honesty in showing different aspects of Iran is appreciated. Thanks for discovering our beautiful land with an honest heart.

We have been trying our best to look into Iran from various perspectives. Including tourism, social life, misconceptions, and etc. Glad to hear your point of view!

The traffic and navigating it as a pedestrian are my least favorite things about visiting Iran! It is the only "scary" thing I have experienced there. My tactic when it comes to crossing the street is to hold on to my husband who has a much longer history of navigating Tehran traffic and hope for the best! We will be back in Tehran next week, can't wait!

This is indeed true Melissa! If you’re not used to such a kind of traffic you’d need to rely on someone 😄! Welcome back to Iran!

Recently travelling from Shiraz to Lar, Mr Gotbi was driving at 130 km maybe faster on the highway. I asked my guide what the speed should be and she said 110km/hr. I have seen 5 lanes on a Shiraz round about. After 2 times in Iran I am used to no seat belts in the back seat, sometimes they are there. It is scary and I prayed a lot for safe travels. We were fine, خدا رو شکر 😊😳☺😀

Thanks for sharing your experience Nicola! Drive safe and note as we always say “Accident Never Informs Ahead”!

I could not drive در ایران، نمی‌تونم و من ترسیدم

​@@idiscoveriran1what do you mean about an accident لطفآ، نفهمم ؟ همیشه جاده های خارج از شهرها را ترجیح می دادم و احساس امنیت می کردم.

Understandable!

I meant you should use the seat belt in the back seat as well! Don’t get used to the “wrong” habit! Of course, it’s much easier on the road.
