Essential Driving Tips for Italy

  • Drive on the Right
    Remember that vehicles in Italy drive on the right-hand side of the road.

  • Beware of ZTL Zones
    Many Italian cities have “Zona a Traffico Limitato” (ZTL) zones—restricted traffic areas with access limits. Unauthorized entry can result in fines, so plan your route carefully.

  • Understanding Toll Roads
    Italy’s highways (Autostrade) are often toll roads. Keep cash or a credit card ready for toll booths, or ask about toll passes.

  • Speed Limits

    • Urban areas: 50 km/h
    • Secondary roads: 90 km/h
    • Highways: 130 km/h
  • Parking Regulations
    Parking can be limited in city centers. Look for designated parking areas, and avoid no-parking zones to prevent fines.
