Driving Tips for Prague
While Prague may look like a fairytale city, our driving tips are grounded in the real world.
- Intersections: Don’t enter if there isn’t enough space for your vehicle to fully clear the intersection.
- * Speed Limits:* Expect speed limits of 50 km/h (31 mph) in the city, and up to 130 km/h (81 mph) on the motorways.
- Right on Red: You cannot turn right or make a U-turn during a red light.
- Share the Road: When driving in Prague’s city center, always give way to trams and buses. Trams approach from the left, so check (even if you don’t hear the tram bell) before turning left.
- Parking: You can find paid garage parking at Palladium Shopping Center, the State Opera, and the National Theater. Metered street parking is available, but check whether parking is free on Saturday and Sunday or just on Sunday.
