Roads : Speed Limits : Age Limits : Parking : Headlights : Seatbelts : Drink Driving : Highway Code : Scenic Routes : Driving Licence Requirements

In towns parking is controlled, usually with a charge.

To pay for parking, you need to take a ticket from the ticket machines on the pavement and place it in view on your dashboard.

Authorised parking spaces are shown by road markings (white dotted lines).

The price of a parking space can vary a lot, depending on the town and the area.

All towns also have underground parking available; this is either in the town centre, or also on the outskirts with public transport connection to the centre.
