In the case of a subpoena, the police may withdraw the offender’s driving license for 30 days under an administrative procedure.

Speed limits

Having rented a car in Tel Aviv, you should strictly adhere to the speed limits below

  • 50 km/h in built-up areas;
  • 80 km/h outside built-up areas;
  • 100 km/h on suburban highways
  • 110 km/h on toll Highway 6.

Hidden cameras are installed on many roads. If you exceed the speed limit by less than 10km/h, no fine will be charged.

Parking

When renting a car in Tel Aviv, keep in mind that it will be difficult finding a parking space on the city’s busy streets. All the parking areas are marked with different colors:

    • blue and white means that it is paid or free parking;
    • red and white or red and yellow means no parking; the zone is only for public transport or for the disabled.

To use a paid parking zone, you need to buy a coupon from a vending machine or from one of the kiosks and attach it to the inside of the windshield. As a rule, you can park at white-blue zones free of charge from 18:00 PM to 7:00 AM and on Saturdays. In front of each of these zones are a panel displaying the parking cost for different times of the day. At some zones, there are machines where you can pay in cash or by credit card. The parking price can reach $4 per hour. There is also a parking space with a fixed cost of $7 to $9 for a day. However, for tourists hiring a vehicle in Tel Aviv, it is more profitable to pay for actual parking time used.

Permissible blood alcohol levels

The maximum permissible level of alcohol in the blood for driving in Tel Aviv is 0.5 ‰. An Israeli police officer may require you to take a test to determine your level of intoxication. It is advisable not to refuse taking such test because doing so is considered a serious offense and incurs more severe penalties, which include imprisonment.

Fuel cost

At local gas stations, drivers can buy diesel fuel and unleaded gasoline (91, 95 and 96). There is a limit of $50 when paying for fuel by credit card. There are no cash restrictions. To refuel a car, you need to enter the number of that car in the machine. If you experience problems, it is better you contact the staff at the filling station.

Average fuel cost in Tel Aviv

Gasoline 95 $2.09
Diesel fuel $2.04

Toll roads

Highway 6 is the country’s only toll road passing through Tel Aviv. To use it, you need to register in a special system and specify the number of your credit card. There are no checkpoints on the road. Tolls are calculated automatically and charged against the license plate of the vehicle, captured by the camera. The toll is deducted from the driver’s credit card. Tolls range from $1.30 to $7 depending on the length of the route.

We returned from Copenhagen. To be well-travelled on the trip and save money, we had rented a car. Before the flight we found a suitable car and paid for it via this site. We got it at the airport, where we were met by a representative of the provider. There were no difficulties or worries. Everything was great.

My foreign friends offered me to rent a car while traveling and not to rely on agencies long ago. They also suggested this car aggregator. Undoubted advantages are the significant amount of results and cooperation only with the proven providers, as well as the possibility of direct payment without clickthrough. I like my first experience of car rental.

I had a business trip to Kyoto, and there it was necessary to travel a lot. For that purpose I rented a car, as my friends and partners who live there said, that it was much cheaper, safer and faster. I rented a car via this site. I liked direct payment without interlinking and a large package of inclusive terms. I recommend it to business people.
