Driving Tips for Denmark
To ensure everything goes smoothly, you should adhere to the following driving tips in Denmark:
- Be aware of cyclists: Denmark is considered one of the most cycle-friendly countries in the world, so you must remain aware of cyclists when driving. When overtaking a cyclist, you should maintain a minimum distance of 1.5 metres and reduce your speed.
- Speed limits: To avoid steep penalties , you should follow the speed limits. In built-up areas, this is 50 km/h (31 mph); in the countryside, it’s 80 km/h (49 mph); whereas on motorways, it’s up to 130 km/h (81 mph).
- Crossing borders: Car hire in Denmark with SIXT allows you to drive across the border to Germany or Sweden. You will need to inform your branch of your desire to do so, as there is normally a surcharge for this.
- One-way streets: You will frequently come across one-way streets throughout Denmark. To easily navigate these, you should include a sat nav in your booking, and stay alert to street signs at all times.
