Driving Tips for Belgium
Your trip in Belgium starts as soon as you depart the SIXT car hire branch. Make sure you follow these key rules to ensure your trip goes as smoothly as possible:
- Watch out for cyclists: Cycling is a very popular sport in Belgium, and you must be courteous to your two-wheeled friends on the road. In towns, you should leave at least 1 metre of space between your hire car and a bicycle when overtaking, whereas this should be increased to 1.5 metres outside of towns.
- Speed limits: Ensure you adhere to the speed limits when driving your car hire in Belgium. Typically, the urban speed limit is 30 km/h (19 mph), the rural limit is 90 km/h (56 mph ), and the maximum speed on motorways is 120 km/h (75 mph).
- Crossing borders: car rental in Belgium with SIXT permits you to cross the border to neighbouring countries, such as France or The Netherlands. It’s important to inform your car hire branch of this in advance, as there is often an additional fee.
- One-way streets: Many towns and cities in Belgium impose one-way systems on the streets. Stay alert to ensure you don’t take a wrong turn.
