When hiring a budget hatchback, it is definitely worth saving on insurance deposit (franchise). Deposits on small cars in Switzerland vary from 100 to 1.000 euro/dollars. Check the rental conditions of each car in your selection to find a vehicle with a minimum deposit.

If your routes in Switzerland are foreseen to pass through hilly areas or mountains, it is not recommended to consider very small cars for rental. Their engines are usually insufficient for a confident driving on the roads with long or steep climbs.

At the rental office in Lucerne, consider to take a 'Breakdown Assistance' package or ask an officer for a contact data to use in case of a vehicle breakdown. Cheap cars are sometimes unpredictable in operation.

Upon receipt of the rental invoice, please check that all the information, as well as the final payment amount do match the data in your voucher.

Driving Advices for Switzerland – Traffic Regulations and Road Usage Peculiarities

In Switzerland, motorcyclists and cyclists have become a real danger for car drivers. Motorbike and bicycle riders often appear in the so-called “blind spot” zones, creating potentially dangerous situations. Taking into consideration such a peculiarity of local roads, car drivers should look around more often, especially before making a maneuver. Riders of two-wheeled vehicles are sometimes not seen in the rearview mirror.

The public transport has a number of advantages on the road. In many cities, buses and trolleybuses have a specially designated lane that is marked with a special sign. Other cars are not allowed to move on that lane.

Pedestrians also have the advantage. It should be noted that not all pedestrian crossings have traffic lights. Even if there is no traffic light, cars are required to stop and wait until the road is free. You can be sure that pedestrians will certainly reward drivers with a friendly smile for their attention.
