Hello everyone, is an international driving license certificate the only one that can be used to drive in Italy? Is it legal or not? Have you ever been stopped by the traffic police and nothing happened? Please share. Thank you ? Italy Q&A
Some people say that you have to go to the Italian consulate to get your driver's license authenticated before you can feel at ease. There are too many opinions, some of which are outdated and have expired. I just want to hear a feedback from friends in France or Italy in 2017. I am at your mercy ? France Q&A
How is the traffic condition on Italian highways? I heard someone say that A3 is not very safe. Is it good to drive on highways with more rain and snow recently ? Italy Q&A
It seems that there are far fewer friends who drive in Greece than in Italy! I wonder if anyone knows how long it takes to drive from Athens to Kalambaka on the road? Is it easy to drive ? Greece Q&A
Excuse me, has anyone driven a Toyota Yaris Hybrid in Italy? I just picked up the car, but it won't start. Even the Italian guy I asked to take a look at it had to try several times to start it. I wonder what the problem might be ? Italy Q&A
Could you please tell me if Avis and Budget are the same company in Italy? I booked a car to be picked up at Termini Station, but the map shows that it's actually 1.2km away from the station at an Avis location. Is this the case for Budget as well? I saw someone say that Budget is actually located inside the station ? Italy Q&A
Excuse me, when picking up the car in Italy, can I show the pick-up slip on my mobile phone, or must it be printed? I'm picking up with Sisily by Car. Thank you ? Italy Q&A
Have you ever encountered a situation where you couldn't pick up the car because you haven't been certified? I suddenly decided to go to Italy last Wednesday, sent my visa last Friday, and flew to the UK on August 31st. I really don't have time to get certified ? Italy Q&A
Newbie asking.. regarding visa issues, elders please see I see that everyone here is a student, I am not a student, currently working in Italy, also on a work permit, can I go to other countries to play? What visa documents do I need? Also procedures ? Italy Q&A
The service staff took a lot of pictures when I picked up the car. I thought they were professional, so I didn't take any pictures (besides, I thought that since I had full insurance, there wouldn't be any problems if an accident happened). Today, when I returned the car, a different lady looked at it very carefully and found a little damage to the paint. She didn't compare it to the pictures when I picked up the car. She just emphasized that I didn't need to make any payments, but asked me to sign. I wondered if the insurance company was playing some kind of trick ? New Zealand Q&A
Hello, I just saw the picture you posted. According to the map, it takes about half an hour to walk from one point to the next along the red line. I'm not sure if it's accurate. Taking a taxi to the farthest point and walking back to the town along the way should be possible. Renting a car is also an option, and there should be parking lots at each point. I just want to practice hiking and build up my physique. As long as it's not too tiring, that's fine, right ? Turkey Q&A
Interpretation of the situation where the friend above violated the law and turned. It's definitely not that the police officer is too kind, or the elder sister is too beautiful. The police officer must know that mainland residents do not have an international driver's license, so why bother detaining you. The mainland is not a contracting party to the International Driving Permit, and the International Driving Permit must be presented together with the local driver's license to be valid. Why not handle it, because there is no specific handling clause. Or understand it as a blind spot in the regulations ? Taiwan(China) Q&A
Why are all the cars in Italy driving so fast? Every single one is going about 150 mph. How is it that everyone is going over 110 mph when the speed limit is only 110 mph? Are there no speed cameras? I'm driving that fast too, not sure if I'll get a ticket ? Germany Q&A
Help! Just now on the highway in Italy from the Leaning Tower of Pisa to Cinque Terre, when I gave my card, no one collected the money when I exited the highway. I pressed the button for a staff member, and she said something (I couldn't hear clearly) and then opened the gate for me to pass through. Do I need to make up for the payment ? Italy Q&A
I picked up the car at Zurich airport, drove all the way to Lucerne, Berne, and Geneva, and then went to Milan. I found that I had to pass through France along the way, but when I booked the car, I only specified that I was going to Italy. Is it okay to add France at the pick-up location without mentioning it at the time of booking ? Switzerland Q&A
