Autóbérlés Ho Szí Minvárosban

40 km/h is the maximum permitted speed when driving a rental car in the city. Even if you would like to go faster, it is unlikely you will be able to, because the flow of traffic on the roads of Ho Chi Minh City is continuous and never stops. You should therefore keep to the general flow of traffic in order not to cause an accident.

• Drive very carefully, because in the event of any collision, the foreign driver is almost always considered to be at fault.
• Responsibility for an accident generally lies with the driver of the larger or more expensive vehicle.
• Traffic in the city is officially on the right-hand side of the road, but many drivers ignore this.
• Whether or not there is a traffic light at a junction, you usually need to move with the flow of other traffic, as few drivers stop for the signals.
• Do not rely on road markings, as many local motorists and bikers simply ignore them.
• If absolutely necessary, drivers may travel briefly in the opposite direction to the flow of traffic.
• You must hold a local driving licence, as an international licence is not valid.
• U-turns are possible almost anywhere, where conditions allow.
• Pedestrians are not always given priority, even at zebra crossings.

You can fill the car with 92 or 95 petrol at a price starting from 22,000 VND per litre. There are filling stations where the staff do all the work, and you do not have to go to the cashier, as payment is taken on the spot.

• In the event of an accident, the tourist driver is almost always considered to be at fault. They may be fined and, if a local person is killed, they may even face imprisonment.
