• Ignoring the alcohol limit at 0.5
• Do not wear seat belts on the front seats
• Do not have a child seat in the car for children under 12 years old
• Park at yellow marked kerbstones or use the mobile phone without hands-free system

As your rental car is marked with a red number plate, you will be able to meet car drivers everywhere on the road who are considerate and helpful. Driving on the island is therefore a stress-free pleasure.
