Common questions on rental process

As a rule, a horn signal is a warning signifying the driver’s intention to make a maneuver or a request to give way, but often local drivers honk without any particular reason, simply to remind other road users about their presence on the road.
Local pedestrians are also not distinguished by compliance with traffic regulations. They often cross the road in wrong places. Outside big cities, pedestrians and drivers often move along the road.
In big cities, traffic is always very slow during the period from 7:30 to 8:30 and from 17:30 to 19:00. If possible, it is better to refrain from traveling during the mentioned time.
