Driving tips for Iceland

Iceland has many winding, mountainous roads with gravel surfaces so it is important to drive your rent a car with caution. Here are few tips for safer driving with your Sixt car rental:

• Headlight use is mandatory while driving both during the day and at night.
• Seatbelts must be worn by drivers and passengers.
• Driving offroad or on unmarked routes is strictly prohibited.
• Before taking a trip to the mountains or into Iceland's interior be sure to contact a travel bureau, tourist information office, or the Public Roads Administration for up-to-date information on road conditions. Mountain roads can be very treacherous and will be closed if deemed impassable.
