It’s always a great idea to get out of the city for a bit, and if you do, get ready to be richly rewarded. With shingle seashores, sandy shores, and snowfields to check out, Vest-Agder is ripe for exciting adventures. A bigger vehicle like a four-wheel drive or an SUV will give you more room and comfort for those long, leisurely drives.

You’ll be happy to hear that there’s a broad range of luxury rentals in Vest-Agder. What you go with will depend on what you’re willing to spend and what you’re planning to do. Prestige vehicles offer unparalleled comfort and class. If you feel like splashing out, why not book an SUV with all the bells and whistles, or perhaps a stylish mid-size sedan? On the other hand, if you just need a set of wheels to get you around town as cheaply as possible, maybe go for an economy vehicle (or something else that won’t break the bank).

There’s no better way to explore the delights of Vest-Agder than from the comfort of your own rental car. But before you fasten your seat belt and take off, it’s worth checking out some of the road rules. Here are a few handy tips and hints to help make your trip as safe and easy as possible:

You’ll need to keep right when driving in Vest-Agder. In addition, exercise a bit of extra caution if it’s your first time behind the wheel here. Once you’re used to how the locals drive, you can relax and start enjoying the scenery!

In Vest-Agder, the maximum speed limit is 110km/h. (The minimum is 80km/h.) When approaching residential areas, keep in mind that unless posted otherwise, the speed limit is 30km/h.

One of two things will happen. Your rental company may bill the fined amount to your credit card. This is the usual approach. Or it may pass on your contact information to local law enforcement agencies so the fine is sent directly to you.

Seat belts have to be worn in Agder. Having said that, this rule may not apply for certain vehicles, like those used by public transportation networks.

It’s prohibited to use your cell phone while driving around Vest-Agder, and you could also be issued a fine for simply handling a phone when you’re in control of a vehicle. That being said, using hands-free or Bluetooth functions is permitted, as long as your attention remains on the road.

In Vest-Agder, it’s a punishable offence to drive with a BAC (blood alcohol content) of more than 0.02%. If you plan to have a drink or two with lunch or dinner, you’d be wise to leave the rental car behind.

Turning on a red light isn’t permitted in Vest-Agder. Always keep an eye on traffic lights and signs to ensure you don’t breach any road rules.
