Driving Abroad
Don't forget
 If you're going abroad, don't forget...

  • Each country has its own driving regulations. Familiarise yourself with them beforehand.


  • Take an overseas breakdown contact number, even if you're hiring a car


  • Penalties for motoring infractions can be severe. Stay within speed limits to avoid hefty, on-the-spot fines.


  • Always belt up, front and back.


  • When you park your car, hide any maps, tour-guides and luggage in the boot so it's not obvious that you're a tourist.


  • While you adapt to driving on the opposite side of the road, pay particular attention to other vehicles, road-markings and signs.


  • When driving a right-hand drive car on left-hand drive roads, hang back before overtaking to improve your view ahead.
