Driving
When a vehicle is parked illegally or in violation of traffic regulations, authorities have the right to stop you and tow away your vehicle or take your number plate. Drivers using the car horn unnecessarily may be fined. Petrol stations accept payments via credit card, but visitors are advised to always check with their credit card providers before travel. When driving in poor visibility, dipped headlights are required. A fire extinguisher, a first-aid kit and a warning triangle are required to be in a vehicle at all times.
