Driving in
Norway
The minimum age of a driver is
18 years in Norway and most other Scandanavian countries. The use
of seat belts is compulsory for front- and rear-seat passengers. The legal
blood alcohol limit is 50 mg and penalties for exceeding it are extremely
severe. (Medicines which should not be taken if you intend to drive soon
thereafter are marked by a red triangle.) Speed limits are as follows:
usually 30 kph in residential areas (note: speed control bumps are not
always signposted), 50 kph (30 mph) in built-up areas, 80 kph (50 mph)
or 90 kph (56 mph) outside built-up areas, and 80 kph (50 mph) or 90 kph
(56 mph) on expressways. Cars towing a caravan or trailer are limited
outside built-up areas to 80 kph (50 mph) if the towed vehicle has brakes,
and to 60 kph (37 mph) if the towed vehicle does not have brakes.
Trams always have priority. In
mountainous areas, vehicles travelling downhill have priority; vehicles
going up the hill must reverse into a passing bay if there's not enough
room for two vehicles to pass. It is illegal to drive off-road.
Headlights must be on at all
times while driving. Excessive use of horns is illegal.
Trams in Oslo should be
passed on the right, but they may be passed on the left if there's no
room on the right or if travelling on a one-way street.
Police are empowered to
collect fines on the spot.
While driving in Norway
you'll see a lot of road works. Nothing is being repaired, more than likely
the Norwegians are constructing two of their favourite things - holes
and tunnels. In more densely populated areas like Oslo, the road works
never stop. This is of course common in all cities, but Oslo is
unique in the fact the holes in the ground are passed on from genration
to generation. This spoils most of the inner city of Oslo and it's advisable
to upgrade your suspension before attempting to drive through the city.
Not all of Norway's motor mayhem
is man-made. Mother Nature has placed a few spanners in the works.
For example, do not attempt to drive on the day of the first snow, it's
carnage.
Sheep and reindeer are
omnipresent. You can always find them where the hot air exits from the mouth of
the, largely unfinished, tunnels. They're in the shadows, waiting for
ususpecting foreign drivers. Try not to run them over, they cost an awful lot
of money and you'll be scraping wool from your bumper for weeks. While you're
at it, try not to drive into any elks, they're awfully big and they'll cost you
your life.
Parking
Parking on main roads or on bends
is not allowed. A sign that reads "All stans forbudt" means No stopping
allowed. Parking metres are differentiated as follows: Yellow = one-hour, Gray
= two-hour, Brown = three-hour. Parking regulations are strictly
enforced.
Licences
Foreign licences are accepted for a duration of one year, after
which a Norwegian licence must be obtained.
Fuel
It's illegal to use diesel fuel from
the red pump. This fuel is subsidised for farmers. Ink in it stains the tank.
If you're found to have such a stained tank, the fine is about $600. Fuel
stations are usually closed from 7am to 10pm on weekdays, though these times
vary greatly; some stay open 24 hours. During weekends stations are open only
in highly populated areas. Major credit cards are not always accepted. Leaded
super petrol has an octane rating of 98. Unleaded petrol is called blyfritt
kraftstoff or blyfri and has an octane rating of 95.
Tolls
There's an NOK 12 toll on vehicles up to 3.5 metric tons (3500
kg) entering the centre of Oslo. Vehicles entering the centre of
Bergen must pay an NOK 5 toll on weekdays but not on weekends or public
holidays. There's a similar NOK 11 toll charged on vehicles entering Trondheim's
city centre.
