Advice For Those Using A Hire Car In Norway

Monday, April 14th, 2008

Whenever you travel to another country or plan to hire a car it is important to understand the local driving regulations. Norway is no different; while the use of a hire car will allow you to see some of the most striking scenery in Europe it is important not to get carried away by the outstanding natural beauty and pay attention to motoring laws.

In Norway all cars must drive with their headlights on day and night, even if it is extremely bright. A hire car in theory should be left hand drive but if driving in a right hand drive car it is a legal requirement to attach a black triangle so other drivers are aware of your situation. Also it is worth asking the car hire company for a set of spare headlight bulbs as carrying these at all times is highly advisable.
