What kind of rental car should I get for Nara?
An amazing road trip begins with a quality car. And if you're heading off to visit the best attractions in Nara, like Todaiji Temple, you'll need a set of wheels that fits your needs. Get ready to meet the mini or economy car. These small runabouts will help you navigate this large city's labyrinth of traffic, streets and pedestrians. If you're traveling with a group, think a little bigger. Comfortably ride around and enjoy ample trunk space with an SUV. These vehicles can handle any type of terrain, which makes them ideal if you want to get out and explore the bays around the region.
Should I get a luxury rental car in Nara?
Sometimes the journey is more significant than the destination, which makes your car choice particularly important. If you're planning an unforgettable road trip around Nara, a comfortable SUV could be your perfect match. If you're looking for the best possible price and plan on sticking mostly to the city, a versatile compact is hard to beat. All you need to do is choose what will suit you best, round up the troops, and start clocking up those miles.
What side of the road do they drive on in Nara?
In Nara, you'll need to stick to the left-hand side of the road. This means the steering wheel is on the right side. If you've chosen a manual transmission rental vehicle, you'll have to get used to shifting gears with your left hand.
Is it difficult to park in Nara?
Getting your hands on a car space in Nara isn't always quick and easy. That's why many people look for a hotel that has its own parking. When leaving the car around the city, keep a close eye on the signage. Overstaying the maximum time limit could earn you a steep fine.
Does Nara have peak-hour traffic?
Since the population of Nara is about 367,400, you won't have a lot of difficulty with traffic congestion. That being said, downtown streets generally get busy before and after work hours, so you may want to avoid driving during these times.
Are there speed limits in Nara?
There sure are. In the city of Nara, speed limits range from 30km/h to 100km/h. Most built-up areas have a maximum speed limit of 40km/h unless marked otherwise.
What happens if I get a speeding fine while driving a rental car in Nara Prefecture?
One of two things will happen. Your chosen car rental company may bill the amount of the fine to your credit card. This is the usual approach. On the other hand, it may forward your contact information to the relevant local agency so the fine is issued straight to you.
Is it illegal to use a cell phone while driving in Nara?
As is the case in many places, regular cell phone usage is not permitted while driving a car in Nara. An exception applies for hands-free or Bluetooth capabilities. Just make sure you stay focused on the road.
What are the rules around drink driving in Nara?
The legal BAC (blood alcohol content) limit while driving in Nara is 0.03%. If you've got a big night planned, leave your wheels behind and organize another way of getting home instead.
Is turning on a red light allowed in Nara?
You aren't permitted to turn at a red light in Nara. If you encounter one, take the opportunity to enjoy a mindful moment or two until the signal turns green.
Are seat belts compulsory in Nara Prefecture?
Although there are a small number of exceptions, seat belts must be fastened in Nara Prefecture.
