The dangers of trailers
It’s doesn’t mean that you are a good driver if you can dodge the stupid people driving around you. The only situation that worried the writer when driving is when he is towing something behind.
During towing a trailer, the driver is exposed to too many accidents. Probably the wheels will collapse or they can come off the hubs no matter how strong the vehicle is.
The risk when towing is due to the trailer not the vehicle itself. One day the writer rented a trailer and he was driving at night. When he got out of his car he smelled the something was burning. He found that the hubs had been destroyed. After that he called the owner and told him what happened and the owner was too sad. That was a small story about the writer.

Natural paradise gets protection
Part 1
Summary:-
The Hajar Mountains are in Fujairah where you can find the Wadi Wurayah where there are more than 100/species of birds and other animals. A big problem is that the concept, of a protected area is vague. This kind of area needs to be protected, because it faces some serious threats. On March 16, 2009 a decree was issued by the Ruler of Fujairah which said that the area is off-limits for development such as construction and quarrying. Wadi Wurayah is one of the few remaining places in the world where the endangered Arabian tahr still roams free. Also the protection plan calls for the hiring of local people to work as rangers to warn off poachers and this protected area will be set up so it meets international standards. The project would not have succeeded if it were not for money donated by HSBC Middle East. Finally it is hoped the management plan will help Wadi avoid the fate of other picturesque areas.
