According to the RAC over thirty five percent of British holidaymakers have no idea what they should do if involved in an accident while almost as many knew the emergency number for the country they were visiting.
A recent report showed that 10 percent of UK drivers had a road accident while driving in Europe. Twelve percent experienced break downs. People were also warned of the cost of unleaded petrol in popular holiday spots such as France and Italy with many not realizing that the fuel savings available are for diesel cars. If you hire a car in Murcia that runs on diesel you can expect to make a twenty fiver percent saving on fuel costs when compared with the UK.
A major change for many drivers is having to drive on the other side of the road. Roundabouts can be tricky and require careful driving until used to. There can also be confusion reading road signs and place names especially as British people may only be familiar with the English language place names.
The AA offer advice when driving in other countries with a list of important items to remember available to view. Be sure to always carry your driving license and passport at all times.
