International Drivers
Driving is a great way to see our beautiful country! However, there are a few things that you may not be used to when driving in New Zealand. For example:
- we drive on the left side of the road
- we have a unique give way rule at intersections
- hilly, narrow or winding roads mean that your journey may take longer than you expect.
Make sure you have a safe and enjoyable journey – please take a few minutes to read this before starting out.
