Stick To Speed Limits When Driving Abroad
Stick to speed limits when driving abroad by Cheap Flights Booker UK
Travellers hiring cars abroad have been warned to stick to speed limits to avoid large on-the-spot fines.
The AA pointed out that penalties for speeding can be tough and instant in many countries, so it"s important to take heed of them.
Often police will request that fines be paid upfront, and vehicles may be impounded for those who can"t settle there and then.
"There are reciprocal arrangements between the UK and most other EU countries for motoring offences, such as from an enforcement camera, so the fine will follow you home and will be recovered by a UK court," the motoring group added.
"Take note that some motorways as well as urban highways measure average speed between cameras."
Furthermore, speed limits can vary according to weather conditions. In France, for example, they can change when it"s raining.
The AA also urged motorists to check their insurance policies before driving abroad and to take out European breakdown cover for total peace of mind.
