You'll get used to it in about a day! Just go around clockwise! London is hard to drive in, but everything else should be fine. Be sure to control your speed when driving through villages and towns, and don't always stay on the fast lane on the expressway. Learn to let other cars go politely, especially when entering roundabouts.

Excuse me, in the case of driving around an island, do we give way to vehicles on the right side of the road first, or do we give way to vehicles on the opposite side of the road first? We don't need to give way to vehicles on the left side of the road because there won't be any intersection. Is that what you mean ? United Kingdom Q&A

When approaching the roundabout, zoom in on the navigation page, and it will be very clear which exit to take! If you make a mistake, never exit, just keep turning until you get it right! We spent a lot of time circling around the roundabout near Heathrow Airport on the first day and missed visiting Cambridge. Now I feel a bit regretful. Later, when we went around the roundabout again, it was a piece of cake ? United Kingdom Q&A

Hi, we are going to send our child to UK to study in August. Which car rental company is the most convenient at Heathrow airport? We need to rent for 10 days. We will arrive London at 20:00 on Aug 26th and need to stay at the airport for one night. It would be great if the car rental company is near the hotel, we can walk to it. Please help.

By the way, do you have any violations? I receive an invoice letter from Sixt every few days, which are all administration fees for speeding violations. It turns out that each item is charged 36 pounds in administration fees! However, I don't know how the fine was sent to the domestic address. I would like to remind everyone that the English address you leave when renting a car must be accurate! I am now worried to death about this ? United Kingdom Q&A

This morning I went to the hotel to store my luggage. I stopped by the taxi parking line at the door to unload my luggage. The police came in less than two minutes. They gave me a ticket. I was standing next to the car at the time and couldn't even say I would leave right away. It's really unfortunate. I returned the car after storing the luggage.
