The maximum speed limit in Iceland is 90 kilometers per hour. The speed limit on some sections of the road is relatively low, and the road signs are relatively clear. It is recommended to master the use of cruise control.

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

@Orange Is it taking pictures before the shoot or the same as in China where they take pictures from the back? Once, I was driving in a town with a speed limit of 70 and my speedometer showed 62. Then, two flashlights lit up. I'm not sure if I was being filmed. The problem is that I was not exceeding 70, and there were no other speed limit signs. Moreover, there was a local car behind me that was following me closely, clearly annoyed that I was driving slowly. So if it's taking pictures before the shoot, wouldn't he not be photographed? That doesn't seem scientific. Clearly, he was driving faster than me, and I wasn't even sure whose speed the sign was showing ? 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 ?
