Driving tips

Necessary items: You must carry a warning triangle in your car, as well as antifreeze, windscreen fluid and a shovel. Ask your rental company if they provide these items.

Headlights: It is mandatory to have your dipped headlights on throughout the day all year round.

Winter driving: Temperatures dip below zero in the winters and the roads can become slippery with snow and ice. You must have winter tyres installed from December to March – your rental company will provide this, but may charge an additional “winterization fee”.

Alcohol limits: Sweden has some of the strictest drinking and driving laws in Europe. The limit is 20mg versus the UK’s 80mg, and there are heavy penalties and fines.

The “Swedish mile”: If you hear anyone referring to this, they are actually talking about a distance of 10 km, not one mile!

Roads: The roads are rarely congested but watch out for wildlife, including moose!
