Local Driving Guide -
When travelling in Portugal it is important that you obey the speed limits; you may very well be pulled over for driving as little as 3km/h over a limit, and receive an on-the-spot fine. While many local citizens regularly speed, this does not form a defence for you, so be careful! As in most European countries, vehicles parked illegally will be immobilised. Front seat-belts are compulsory when travelling outside of built-up areas. Use the horn only at times of extreme danger. The minimum age for driving is 17, although anyone who has held a licence for less than a year must display a special yellow disc which indicates that they are not permitted to exceed 90km/h at any time. Normal speed limits are: 120km/h on expressways; 100km/h out of towns; and 50km/h in built-up areas. There is also a minimum speed limit of 40km/h on the expressways and 50km/h when crossing the 25 de Abril Bridge in Lisbon. Roads are often three lanes wide, where the middle lane is used for passing in both directions. Petrol stations are usually open from 7am to midnight, but some operate over 24 hours. Major credit cards are acceptable. It is illegal to carry extra fuel in cans. You should always give way to passengers who have to negotiate the road when leaving a tram. Do NOT drink and drive. | Connect's Price Promise Currency Converter
