Taxis are a cheap way of getting around cities and a good-value way of travelling between cities if you're in a group.

Speed limits are 130kph (81mph) on motorways, 110kph (68mph) on major highways, 90kph (56mph) on other non-urban roads and 50kph (31mph) in built-up areas. You must use winter tyres between 15 November and 15 March.
