Croatia Driving Advice and Car Hire Info
Driving In Croatia
Driving abroad in Croatia generally feels more akin to driving in Western Europe than its Eastern neighbour, Roads are usually in good condition, the standards of vehicle maintenance and driving are high and even Cities and large towns feel manageable. Staff at most rental companies will also speak good English. Some additional info on driving in Croatia -The drink driving limit is zero – so there must be no alcohol in your blood when driving, children under 12 can’t travel in the front seat (or the drivers seat!) and dipped headlights must be used at all time – a rule I found out to my cost in Croatia when I was stopped by the police!
