Detailed FAQ on the rental process
Many roads have a special lane for drivers who prefer to drive at a slow speed. According to local traffic regulations, such drivers must give way to other, faster cars, and, if possible, use a dedicated lane.
The white letter “M” on a blue background is rather an unusual sign, which can often be seen in narrow streets. Drivers, who see this sign on their side of road, must give way to vehicles moving in the opposite direction. The meaning of the sign is very simple - it means “Motesplats” or “a meeting place”.
Local police have no authority to accept payments for fines, so do not try to pay to a police officer as it can be considered as an attempt to give a bribe. Fines should be paid only in the bank.
