Roads in Rhodes are improving over the years but remember you are driving on the right hand side of the road. Roundabouts are on the island and same rules apply as back home but still take care. Take care while driving around the island and always make sure you have enough petrol if you're going to explore!

There is two petrol stations on the outskirts of Lardos and then dotted around the island.

Driving license laws

Visitors must be aged 18 or over and hold a full, valid driving licence to legally drive in Greece. Riders of motorcycles up to 125cc must be aged 18 or over, while moped (not exceeding 50cc) riders must be aged 16 or over. Driving licences issued in EU and EEA countries are accepted.

Rules of the road in Greece

Overtaking and passing

In Greece, motorists drive on the right and overtake on the left. 

Overtaking is forbidden on and approaching level crossings, or if the vehicle ahead has stopped for safety reasons. 

Who has priority?

As a general rule, priority must be given to vehicles coming from the right unless indicated. 

Outside of main urban areas, traffic moving along a main road has priority at an intersection. 

Warning of approach

In urban areas, sounding the horn is not allowed at any time, except in an emergency. Multi-toned sirens, hooters and whistles are strictly prohibited.

Seat belts

It’s compulsory to wear seat belts in the front and rear seats of cars equipped with belts. 

The fine for failing to wear a seat belt is €350. 

Road signs

All major and secondary roads and motorways have road signs in both Greek and English 

Speeding fines in Greece

Speeding fines in Greece range from €40 to €750 depending on the speed at which offenders are caught, and the road on which they’re driving. 

Travelling with children in Greece

All children aged under three travelling in cars in Greece must be placed in a suitable child restraint. Children aged between three and 11 must be seated in an appropriate child restraint for their size.

From the age of 12, children over 1.35m tall can wear an adult seat belt. You can ask your hire company for any booster seats etc.

• You need a full, valid UK driving licence and usually a second proof of ID (passport)
• Car rental companies ask that you have held your licence for a minimum term of 1 year
• Some companies may require you to use a credit card for deposit
• Make sure you get car hire excess insurance before your trip to protect yourself from unexpected costs. It's almost always cheaper to do this with a separate insurer and in advance
• Dial 112 in an emergency

Greece uses the metric system for all road signs, so speed limits and other signs including distance are shown in kilometres and metres.
