Some General tips for driving abroad


Watch out when pulling out from service stations or restaurants on the left side of the road. And if you spot a petrol station on the left, remember that there’s going to be oncoming traffic between you and it. TAKE CARE when overtaking — allow more space between you and the car in front so you can see further down the road ahead. KNOW THE LIMIT — every country in Europe now has strict drink driving laws — at least as strict as the UK and more stringent in some other countries. Drivers should not assume that their personal limits for the UK will match those of other countries. KEEP TO THE LIMIT - speed limits are implemented rigorously and radar traps are frequent. Watch for speed signs and remember to think in KPH not MPH. KEEP COINS HANDY — Pay-as-you-go tolls are charged on most motorways in France, Spain, Italy, Switzerland and Austria. BELT UP — Seat belts front and rear are obligatory everywhere, with some countries enforcing strict rules on carrying children. GREEN FOR DANGER — Traffic signals can be confusing and vary internationally. In many countries a continously flashing amber light means that you may proceed if the road is clear, but you must give way to both other cars and pedestrians. The change from green to red can be far quicker than in the UK. DON’T DAZZLE — Avoid blinding oncoming drivers at night by fitting Rover Dip Beam Converters that instantly convert the beam of the headlights from left to right. Rover 25 Headlamp covers with Dip Beam Converters part number XBV100780 Rover 45 Headlamp covers with Dip Beam Converters part number XBV100810 Rover 75 Headlamp covers with Dip Beam Converters part number XBV100600 MGF Continental Headlamp Converters part number XBV100600 HEAR THIS — Using the horn for giving a warning of presence is also far more common in mainland Europe than in the UK but local restrictions apply in urban areas. PLAN AHEAD — make sure you know where you are going. Exploring is enjoyable but a good map and a good idea of where you want to be will help avoid confusion at difficult moments. Know your road numbers. MAKE YOURSELF UNDERSTOOD — Have a phrase book with simple phrases to hand and learn key words — petrol, breakdown, hospital, bank, for example. AVOID AN IDENTITY CRISIS — Make sure that passports and visas remain valid for at least the duration of your travel. Remember you may also need: Additional insurance — motor, medical and personal. Your insurance company may require you to obtain and carry a Green Card for driving abroad. The vehicle’s original registration document or a letter of authorisation of use abroad from the owner. An International Driving Permit DON’T FORGET — Throughout mainland Europe, you are also legally obliged to: Display a nationality plate or sticker on the rear of the vehicle.

Some brief driving tips for specific countries

ITALY Despite its noisy and carefree reputation, use of the horn is prohibited in built-up areas except in ‘immediate or extreme danger’; warnings should be with flashed headlights only. Rear-mounted racks (including bike carriers) must be tagged with an approved red-and-white warning sign available from accessory shops throughout Italy. There’s a fine of approximately 100,000 lire waiting for those who haven’t got one — and 25 per cent has to be paid on-the-spot by foreign motorists; double if you want to argue the point. In a bid to thwart rising car crime levels, Italian police are stopping foreign-registered cars to check ownership documents — failure to present them can result in the car being impounded.

SPAIN Drivers who wear glasses are required to carry a spare pair in the glove box in case they lose or break their main ones. If they don’t they can face a roadside fine.

FRANCE Never use sidelights, use dipped beam as a minimum; flashed headlights means “I’m coming through” or a friendly warning of a police speed trap!

GERMANY It’s an offence to run out of petrol on the motorway; abusive language and gestures are also offences. Buses have right of way when leaving bus stops.

AUSTRIA Do not park caravans within 500 metres of a lake to avoid contravening local environmental laws.

FINLAND All accidents involving elk and deer must be reported to the police; cars left in poorly lit streets at night must have parking lights illuminated.

NETHERLANDS Trams and cyclists on cycle paths have right of way. To use a motorway, cars must display a ‘vignette’ pass (equivalent of car tax) in the windscreen, available to purchase from tourist offices — and like Spain, spectacle—wearing drivers must carry a spare pair.

PORTUGAL Park only in the same directions as traffic flow; caravan-towing vehicles should display special ‘yellow-triangle-on-blue-background sign and have an up-to-date list of caravan contents to show police if requested.
