You should take care to obey the "priority to the right' rule. In many instances drivers must give priority to vehicles joining a road from the right, even if they have stopped at a road junction or stopped for pedestrians or cyclists. Fines have increased dramatically - for example, the penalty for exceeding the speed limit by 40km/hr can be up to ,750 Euros. If you are unable to pay an on-the-spot fine your vehicle may be impounded.
