Road Rules
You must drive on the right. Speed limits for cars and motorbikes are consistent throughout the country and strictly enforced: 50 km/h in built-up areas (from the town sign as you enter to the same sign with a red line through it as you leave); 80 km/h on secondary and tertiary roads; 100 km/h on highways; and 130 km/h on motorways. Exceeding the limit will earn you a fine of 500 to 20 000 Sk payable on the spot.
The use of seat belts up front is compulsory. Motorcyclists must wear helmets, a law strictly enforced. Another law taken very seriously is the one requiring all vehicles to show their headlights throughout the day outside built-up areas. Motorcycles should have headlights on at all times.
There is a 100% ban on alcohol when you are driving, and this rule is very strictly enforced.
Children under 150 cm must sit in a child safety seat.
Bus
Eurolines has 30 and 60-day passes allowing unlimited travel in some 18 European countries. One caveat: you are not allowed to travel on the same line more than twice.
