I think Al ain is the only paradise left in UAE... lol!!!
Also know there are areas in Abudhabi, strictly locals only.
Coz it will be raided by CID at some point and when you get caught you wont have the same wasta as a local.

Drifting is of course illegal. If caught, you'll get quite a fine, quite some black points and probably have your car impounded. If you want to practice it though, go off the main roads... On E66 (pass outlet mall), you have deserted areas with some gravel. You could go there, make some dust fly up and go home :)

PS - for a mustang, make sure you have an upgraded suspension

well... if the driver loses control of the car and kills innocent people then that makes drifting illegal.

The drifting Supra I saw in Al Ghurair was lucky there were no cops and no people standing nearby.
