Car broken down? Call +974 3122 2041 — Saaed Service, 24/7 across Qatar.

Step 1: Get to Safety

If your car is still moving when you notice the problem, do not stop suddenly in a live traffic lane. Indicate and gradually move to the hard shoulder, a service road, or a parking area. If the car stops without warning, turn on hazard lights immediately and assess whether you can safely push or roll it off the road.

Step 2: Make Your Position Safe

  • Hazard lights on immediately
  • Apply the handbrake and put the car in Park
  • If on a highway, place a warning triangle 30 metres behind the car
  • Exit the car on the side away from traffic only when safe
  • Move to behind a safety barrier if one is present

Step 3: Assess the Situation

  • Is anyone in the car injured? Call 999 for medical help first if yes
  • Is the car safe where it is, or does it need to be moved urgently?
  • What symptoms did you notice — warning lights, noises, smells?

Step 4: Call for Help

What Not to Do

  • Do not attempt repairs you are not confident doing
  • Do not add water to an overheated engine
  • Do not stand behind the car on a highway
  • Do not leave the car without making it visible with hazard lights
