So after spending 4 months in Europe we figure we must have some worthwhile knowledge to be shared. Here’s our top 10 tips for driving in Europe:
1. Always follow the GPS.
2. Don’t always follow the GPS- sometimes your gut instinct is correct.
3. Learn your left from right.
4. Don’t drive on Hardangerfjordveg in Norway unless you’re ready to meet your Maker- the road name says it all!
5. Drive a car less than 2m high.
6. Drive a car that runs on LPG.
7. Watch out for bikes!
8. Don’t take more than 5 seconds to leave after getting back in your car after paying for petrol.
9. Don’t get out of your car and punch the person who honks at you 5 seconds after you get back in your car after paying for petrol.
10. Don’t assume that the car hurtling towards you in your lane is going to hit you.
