Traffic: Don't take your car to Rome
  • Tip Rating:
  • As I tried to summarize in the title of this warning or danger tip, you should know about what to expect before thinking of driving to Rome. Traffic, 'crazy' drivers and tight (or better said the lack of) parking spaces, could ruin your holiday if you end up with scratches or dents in your car. Just look at the car in the picture. There were so many like that in Rome. I can bet that no less than 50% of the cars have at least one little scratch and more than 10% have serious damages. Another thing I have observed is that there are no big cars in Rome .. I was kind of surprised when seeing a VW Passat or something that 'big'. Dangers come from everywhere, from buses to motorcycles and scooters. You go to Rome and you will understand what I am talking about. But for the sake of your car, leave it at home or at least well parked at the hotel.

     This is a beautiful page that shows many beautiful images of this city. Rom is an important destination for the travellers of the whole world. I never was in this city, but soon, I would like to go there. Best wishes from Vienna! Gabriela

     Hi Codrutz - Lovely photos and detail on my beloved Roma - wish we had known you were here - just had a mini-meet the last two days with great VT'rs. Hope you threw that coin in Trevi. Ciao, Carol
