Be careful when parking, as parking lots are mostly narrow and it's easy to scratch vehicles. Pay attention.

Other areas are not clear, I only know about the city of Madrid. Parking in the city of Madrid is very inconvenient. The usual underground parking fee is 35 euros per day, but some hotels can negotiate discounts with the parking lot.

In Spain, parking is mostly on the side of the road. White spaces are for free parking, blue spaces allow up to 4 hours, and green spaces allow up to 2 hours. Remember to pay at the meter when the time is up. After paying, a ticket will be printed, which must be placed inside the car. Otherwise, the police will issue a fine. Meters vary in different cities, so it's best to ask a police officer in a bright vest or observe others. Important information: parking is free in all cities from 9:00 PM to 9:00 AM the next day, as well as on weekends and public holidays. However, the car must be moved or the meter paid before 9:00 AM the next day. Parking fees are highest in Barcelona and Madrid.

In the European region, it is quite difficult to find parking spaces (due to tight parking, language barriers, and different local regulations), so the choice of accommodation needs to consider the parking factor!

When driving in Spain, be sure to pay attention to street parking. After parking on the street, be sure to ask the locals if it is free. If it is paid, it is best to find a self-service parking machine, put the money in and print out the ticket to place on the windshield of the car. Otherwise, there is a 60 euro fine.

We rented a car in Spain and returned it a month ago. The car rental agency charged our credit card for the transfer management fee for traffic violations. When I asked the customer service, they said they would send us the traffic violation bill later, and we would have to pay the fine ourselves. The transfer management fee is only 40 euros or so. Is it that expensive? Has anyone else encountered this situation ? Spain Q&A

Drive for 2 days in Spain. Total 4 days. My credit card has been charged by Avis car rental for several months after I returned the car. Each time it's basically more than 40 euros. Could I have broken the law so many times while driving for 2 days? I can't believe it. I have paid for 3 months in a row, each time more than 40 euros. I'm crying. I drove very steadily on the road, an old driver for many years, and it's impossible for me to break the law so many times. Moreover, I have not received any violation records through email or regular mail. What's going on? I need an explanation ? Spain Q&A
