Driving in Romania: What to Expect

Car Class Recommendations

In Romania, the roads can range from modern streamlined highways to picturesque country lanes. For this reason, we recommend a comfortable mid-sized car or SUV for the best balance of comfort and drivability.

Speed Limits and Traffic Rules

Speed limits in Romania might be slightly different to what you're used to in the UK. Here they are typically 50 km/h in built-up areas, 90 km/h on regular roads, 100 km/h on dual carriageways and 130 km/h on motorways. Don't forget, Romania drives on the right-hand side of the road.
