Driving is a great way to see Scotland and we have an extensive road network that makes it easy to get around the country. However, if you're planning on driving while you're in Scotland, then there are a few things you should know to keep yourself, and everyone else, safe!
First thing's first, in Scotland, just like the rest of the UK, we drive on the left hand side of the road!
We also know how important getting to your destination is, but we take road safety very seriously and have strict speed limits in place. These speeds will vary depending on what type of road you're on, but you'll find that the correct speed will be clearly signposted.
As well as major motorways that make inter-city travel quick and easy, we also have 12 National Tourist Routes and the North Coast 500, which can be explored with VisitScotland's Road Trips guide. These alternative driving routes might take you a little longer to get where you're going, but they will take you through some of Scotland's most awe-inspiring scenery.
