• Drive on the right

• Minimum driving age in Holland is 18 years

• Always carry your driving license. If you do not have a photocard driving license, remember to carry your passport as further proof of identification.

• Give way to traffic from the right - even on small side roads unless otherwise marked

• Seat belts must be worn by both front and rear passengers

• Children must use the appropriate car seats/restraints at all times

• Children under 3 must travel in the rear but children from 3 to 12 years may travel in the front as long as they have an appropriate child seat.

• Using (or even handling) a mobile phone whilst driving is prohibited. However, hands-free sets are permitted

• Do not drink and drive - the blood alcohol limit is very low

• Speed cameras and speed traps are commonplace and offenders can find themselves facing substantial penalties or on-the-spot fines.

• Speed limits are strictly enforced beside road-works

• Overhead illuminated lane indicators are widely used, particularly during rush hours. Do not be tempted to ignore these.

• A red inverted triangle at the approach to a roundabout means traffic on the roundabout has right of way. Otherwise traffic joining the roundabout has priority.

• Although there is a comprehensive cycle path network, when cyclists do meet or join traffic they have right of way

• Watch out for trams - particularly if you are driving
