United Arab EmiratesUAE

Road signs and route shields have a distinctive look. In some areas you can spot the Google Car’s white roof.

Expect high-rise silhouettes in major cities such as Dubai. Construction sites are common.

Unlike Qatar, terrain in the Emirates is rarely perfectly flat. Eastern suburbs reveal rocky hills —beware confusion with the Omani exclave of Musandam.

License plates are mainly white, but a red strip may appear on the left. Qatar uses similar colours, so confirm with other clues.

Signposts often have striped end poles . Simple silver poles exist too, so use context.

The Google Car is distinctive—often a white vehicle with the roof visible. Even when the roof isn’t visible, expect a white body.

Distinct scenery and the Google Car appears in nearly every panorama .
