Driving Tips for Bucharest

Before you hit the road, here are a few things to know:

Traffic: Rush hour can get pretty intense, especially downtown;
Parking: It’s tough to find free spots in central areas. Look for “blue zone” paid parking (about 5 RON/hour ≈ $1) or use apps like Parking București or AmParcat;
Road signs: Mostly clear, but some intersections can be confusing — GPS helps a lot;
Driving style: Locals can be a bit aggressive behind the wheel. Stay alert;
Speed limits: 50 km/h in cities, 90 km/h outside, 130 km/h on highways;
Pedestrians: Watch out — jaywalking is common;
Police checks: Occasionally stop drivers for ID/license checks. Keep your passport/ID, driver’s license, and rental agreement with you.
