There’s a whole lot more to getting on the road in Richlands than simply settling into the driver’s seat and cranking the engine. Learn about a few of the most important local traffic rules here:

In Richlands, you’ll have to keep to the right-hand side. When exploring someplace new, it’s always a wise idea to select an automatic car. That way, you can focus on the road and save worrying about gear changes.

If you’d like to leave your car in town and venture around the area on foot, you shouldn’t have too many issues scoring a spot. Just be sure to pay attention to the parking signs and adhere to the rules. You don’t want to ruin a fun day out with a fine.

As the population of Richlands is around 1,700, you shouldn’t have too much difficulty with traffic congestion. However, main roads generally get busy in the rush hours before and after work, so you may want to avoid driving then.

Generally, one of two things will happen. Your car rental company may bill the fined amount to your credit card. This is the more common practice. On the other hand, it may forward your contact information to the relevant local agency so the fine is issued straight to you.
