If you are planning on driving in Europe with a Warrington rental van, it is not much more difficult than driving a car. Here is a short guide to driving a Warrington hire van in Europe…
Tips For Driving A Warrington Hire Van In Europe
It is possible to take one of our hire vehicles to Europe providing we are informed when you make your reservation and you give us at least 24 hours’ notice. Our European Cover van insurance policy, allows travel only to the following countries: Republic Of Ireland, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Spain, Germany, Austria, Portugal, Denmark, Italy, Norway and Sweden.
Driving on the other side of the road
If you have only driven in the UK before, driving on the right will be hard to adapt to at first. You are at the most risk if you lose your concentration. Pulling out of a junction onto a quiet road is the most common risk. Take a moment to focus before you pull off – and maybe write a note and leave it on the dashboard.
Speed Limits
Speed limits for vans vary across Europe and are not the same as those in the UK. Also, remember that speeds will be in Kph – not Mph! Speed limits are usually displayed at the border crossing. Pay attention to them – in most European countries you can get on-the-spot fines.
What documents are required to drive a Warrington hire van in Europe?
You need an original VE 103 Vehicle On Hire certificate (a photocopy is not acceptable) to prove that you have permission to drive a vehicle outside the UK that you do not own. This can be supplied by the Warrington van hire company.
