Driving Around Jersey

Driving Rules and Speed Limits

Brits will feel quite at home on the roads, as in Jersey, we drive on the left-hand side. However, there are a few rules that differ. The maximum speed limit is generally 40 mph on open roads and drops to 30 or even 20 mph in built-up areas. Always pay attention to the local signage.

Car Class Recommendations

With the island's mostly narrow and some hilly roads, a compact car can be a good choice for the journey. They are excellent for short trips, easy to park and generally more cost-effective to hire and run.
