Finland Driving Advice and Car Hire Info
Driving In Finland
Roads are generally in good condition and standards of driving are high. However driving abroad in Finland in winter months can be dangerous, especially if you aren’t used to icy conditions. Snow tyres are required December to February and engine heaters are strongly recommended. Your rental company will ensure your car is properly equipped to deal with likely conditions. All motor vehicles must use headlights at dusk, or in the fog or rain. Headlights must be used at all times outside built-up areas (indicated by a sign). Motorists in Finland should remain alert for elk and reindeer which frequently wander onto roads and are most active at dusk.
