For those navigating Italy's roads for the first time, take a moment to get acquainted with the vehicle, understand Italy's traffic regulations, and plan your routes.

In Italy, driving is on the right-hand side. A valid driving license from your home country is required, and depending on your country of origin, you may also need an International Driving Permit (IDP).

The speed limits in Italy are generally 50 km/h in urban areas, 90 km/h on secondary roads, and 130 km/h on highways, subject to change based on road conditions and signage.
