In general, there won't be too much snow in the southeast, and even if it snows, it won't stay. There may be more snow in the north, and the roads may be slippery.

I have two questions now, see who can help answer them; First, we want to drive from the airport to Oslo and Reykjavik city, walk around a few attractions, how to park in the city? How to pay for parking meters? If there is no cash on hand, can the airport swipe the card to withdraw cash? Second, I have booked some homestays in Norway and Iceland, but I estimate that I will not be able to check in until after 9 pm every day. How do the landlords usually leave the door for us to check in? It's our first time to stay, we don't know each other, and we don't know the specific location of the homestay ? Iceland Q&A

Friends around the island, have you honked your car horn? On the sixth day of the island tour, I had never honked the horn before. Today, in the eastern mountain area, there was a mountain turn that couldn't see the car on the other side, so I wanted to honk the horn to remind them, but I found that no matter how I pressed the horn, it didn't make a sound. I'm not sure if I should contact the car dealership to change the car, considering that I've already traveled so far. I didn't hear any cars honking on the road before, and the previous roads were all easy to drive. I wonder what the road conditions will be like later. Will everyone use the car horn when driving around the island ? Iceland Q&A

Could you guys please help? Three of us are going to Iceland in early February for 8-9 days, and plan to visit Vik black sand beach, glacier lagoon, golden circle, grass hat mountain, Reykjavik. We are all "old hands" and of course prefer Road trip. The problem is that we have no experience driving on icy roads, and we are worried that we may not be able to handle the road conditions in bad weather. Could you guys please tell us whether we should give up Road trip? If we don't give up, what safety measures should we take ? Iceland Q&A

I was following a local photographer from Reykjavik to Vik in Iceland, and she was driving at over 100 km/h the whole way. I asked her if there were any problems, and she said that there were no speed cameras in Iceland, only police officers hiding in the bushes on some busy roads! When we entered some towns, she was also driving at a speed of over 70 km/h past the speed cameras! At the time, I was also very worried! Later on, I found that there were two types of speed cameras. One type only measured the speed, and the other type had two flashing lights on top of it. I guessed that the first type did not take pictures! Everyone can refer to this! I was driving at a speed of 100-110 km/h the whole way, and there were still many cars that passed me! On the three-digit sections, driving at 30 km/h and avoiding large stones was not a problem! The regular ring road route has no place that only SUVs can pass! As long as you don't have a tire burst, any car can go! The above is just personal advice! Everyone should decide according to their own situation! If there are more people, it's better to rent a larger car. The average cost per person won't be much different ? Iceland Q&A

F26 has been given up, thank you all, but we still have to go the No. 1 highway. Leave from the Glacier Lake at noon and stay in Husavik at night. I also admit to walking at night. Unfortunately, there is no time. I want to experience the interior highway on the last day, from Akureyri to the Golden Waterfall and Geysir on F35, and stay in Reykjavik at night. I just don't know if F35 will still be open at that time ? Iceland Q&A

I've been in Iceland for three days. I've used my credit card to pay for groceries at the supermarket, at the hotel, and to buy a local phone card. But no one has asked me to enter a password or sign anything. My credit card is from CMB and the gas station didn't ask me to enter a password because I bought a gas card. I'm not sure why ?
