Driving in Florida - how does it work?
Driving in Florida is like here in Germany but to some relaxing! Here is a consideration we miss on our road.
Wide streets, parking everywhere: The country is based on the traffic and has in this spacious infrastructure.
We book the car currently always over billiger-mietwagen.de.
Look for a good insurance what also appears on this website. If you have a navigation device, you can rent a Navi. It ended even directly in German language. If you set off, it may be that the Navi in the "home mode" is and only simulates how to ride. Switch it to the menu or let you switch.
It is the duty of employees to offer an "upgrade" the insurance or vehicle on-site. A friendly answered in the negative is sufficient here. Should you feel badly treated for any reason, then you demand (group leader) or Manager (Manager) the supervisor. Are in the land of good service!
Some useful tips:
- Abide by the rules on speed, otherwise sanctions of USD 500.
- It may right overtaken, so not frighten and pay attention.
- At red lights must be bent right not expressly prohibited.
- There is no right before left regulation. Everyone has to keep his stop sign and served is in the order as the crossing was hit. I have rarely seen these crossings and there are only very small crossings. Get should you here not along, you are prompted the other drivers by show of hands friendly to the continuing. Know-it-all exists here rarely, the Sun provides just a friendly heart.
- When you are prompted to stop by a police car (also civilian vehicles!), then turn right ran and not alight! Keep the hands visible on the wheel and follow the instructions of the officer. Be polite, welcome the officer and tell him that you come from Germany! Please make any unsolicited handles in the glove compartment or else where!
- Traffic lights stand before you as in Germany, but located on the center of intersection. But please keep to the line and not in the middle of the intersection.
- If you have a navigation system in Germany, then you get the North America update and ride your usual navigation throughout the United States.
