Driving in Spain from the UK

[@reo.incognito]

I'm Spaniard and have been driving here for 30 years, and I think this video was excellent. If I try really hard, I guess I could nitpick one or two of minor details, but I won't because you did a great job.

[@LeoStep93]

Regarding priority signs vs. traffic lights: at least in the Czech Republic, traffic lights take precedence. So if you have green (not an arrow) and turn left, you should give way to oncoming traffic. If you have a green arrow to the left, you can turn left immediately. And if traffic lights are broken or flash orange, it means you should drive by the priority sign. Hope it helps :)

[@angevivniftcharlo]

I’m Spanish, and in Spain it’s like that as well.

[@lemonpebble]

17:35 I don't know about Spain but in Poland you get priority signs even on lights-controlled junctions to set the priority for a situation when the lights aren't working (and it happens more often than you'd actually expect)

[@RichardFanders]

That's intersting, thank you.

[@martinkatzel1285]

In Germany as well. Running traffic lights or a police officer overrule these priority signs.

[@gabi10cg]

That's how it is in Spain as well

[@fj4695]

Here in Spain, the yellow priority sign is very rare but the triangle yield is very very common

[@LetharG]

@@RichardFanderssame in the Netherlands and Belgium. Also one yields at traffic from the right at unmarked junctions by default.

[@2400juani]

23:30 The dotted short line in Spain represents a 'special lane', where certain exceptions to common rules may apply. In this scenario, it's used to represent a special additional lane for slow traffic. For reference, in this case, you aren't required to move right onto it since it's just an additional special lane for lorries or otherwise slow traffic (usually found on uphill roads), you're technically fine by driving on the left one in this case as long as you meet the minimum speed. It'd be different if you had a regular non-solid line, where you'd be required to drive on the right-most lane unless you're overtaking. As you pointed out, it's also used to signal special lanes like deceleration or acceleration lanes into highways/freeways, among a few more uses regulated by the traffic laws :D

[@LeoStep93]

Another great holiday trip video. A perfect combination of beautiful vistas from the journey with loads of super-useful and detailed information. Also, the production quality is just top-notch, as always. I can hardly believe anyone can be that dilligent and precise when actually on holiday, and on an intensive trip of exploration at that. Kudos to Gosia as well for not minding that (too much, hopefully :D).

Wow, I've been driving all over Europe recently and was in Spain last week and before! The hack for toll booths, &c. when driving alone is to switch the hazards on to warn traffic behind, then just get out of the car with caution and walk to the machine.

[@VíctorGarcíaPérez-t3y]

As a Barcelonian myself, the problem that I've encountered in Spain is that family and friends put pressure on you to break the laws, to stop where you are not allowed to, and to speed beyond the speed limit. I always respect the traffic rules and try to drive as efficiently and smooth as possible the diesel manual 136 hp Astra state from my parents, but other drivers honk at you for simply respecting the speed limits and rules, and give priority to pedestrians and cars that by law, have the right of way. I must say though, I've also seen this kind of pressure put into drivers in other countries, like Germany. The only place where I've seen a majority of silky smooth drivers, and the best drivers I remember seeing, was Japan (including Tokyo).

You also went pass near my house which was hilarious, something you'll realize if you travel further down south or to less urban areas is how much more relaxed driving is. I'm currently studying in Barcelona and I didn't bring my car, but in the city, I see them accelerate stupid fast and aggresive, else they miss and delay other cars from passing the green light. Whereas in the south, I'm used to cars just driving slowly and way more chill.

[@ZhengZL69]

Extra note in barcelona: Locals go into the bus/taxi lane a lot, and as long as you don't hold up much traffic, bus/taxi drivers are ok with it (At least that's the perspective I've gotten living here!)

0:40 I would like to provide some more information on speed limit signs for anyone interested: In Finland, Sweden and Iceland speed limit signs (and most other road signs that are white in the rest of Europe) have a yellow background instead of a white one, because yellow is easier to see in snowy conditions👍

[@Glockas]

You can get the same tag for France and Spain/Portugal. You'll need to get the French one, then get the Spanish/Portugal added on. Tho in my experience driving in Spain (Montpellier- Barcelona- Zaragoza- Madrid- Bilbao- Bordeaux) the only time I experienced toll roads was in the Basque Country.

[@ManuelRodriguez-po1bu]

regarding the "signalling left to stay on the roundabout", our traffic laws dictate that there's no need to, as the lack of signaling already signifies that you're staying on the round, but it has developed as a common courtesy, as there's SO MANY people who don't signal to exit, that sometimes you're left out wondering if the car in front of you is gonna take the exit or not. Lots of people do the roundabouts from the inside and just cross lanes to exit, which is really dangerous, so it's also a kind of defense mechanism to indicate "hey, I'm not exiting here even tho I'm on the right lane" so other cars don't just cross into you thinking you're going to exit. This is specially important in 3-4 lane roundabouts, or as I like to call them, hell, when you're stuck on the far side and there's 2 lanes of cars to your left wanting to exit. Lots of people will debate this, saying that you shouldn't be in the right lane if you're not taking the next exit, but traffict laws are very clear and roundabouts should be done through the right lane, only using the left lanes to overtake. If you bump into someone on your right trying to exit a roundabout, regardless of context, insurance is gonna rule it your fault.

[@Core2lee91]

I find it very easy to adapt to driving on the left (even in a RHD car) - for me I always tell myself "right is right".

There are actually 11 cities in Spain with low emissions zones (ZBE) in operation, although four of them are in the greater Barcelona area. Eventually, every city with over 50,000 inhabitants will have to have a policy on emissions, but most of them are being slow in implementing controls.

[@AL5520]

According to the site of "Ministerio para la Transición Ecológica y el Reto Demográfico" there are 16 active ZBE in Spain and many more in authorization processes so the best option is to check in advance is the places you plan to visit have a low emission zone.

26:15 on the bad roads in Aragon, we have one of the worst secondary roads in spain, mainly because we are 50 000km² (10% of spain) and we only have 1.5 milion people, and 800000 live in the capital, so we have a lot of roads for the people using them thus they are usualy old and underfunded. Another thing to mention is that we have a very extreme climate, the roads have to endure from -20 to +45 c round the year, with days of 40c of oscilation, and that limits the materials of the roads, making them coarser or risking breaking

[@juliusvdl2204]

Hope you check out the Netherlands one day, I'm sure you will be impressed with the road quality!

[@robhunt8682]

I live in this area and it was interesting to see a Brit driving there and experiencing the roads! The quality of the roads in the province of Barcelona are great, the minute you drive over the border into a different province (Província de Tarragona or Província de Lleida) the roads can be awful. If you are driving from Barcelona to Lleida on the A2 as soon as you pass the sign the asphalt literally changes colour 😂 Huesca is pronounced Wess-ka. Interesting about the solid white lines is that you cannot cross it even to go into a private residence or into a side street. If you are permitted to cross it then you would have a dotted line like you do when you are permitted to overtake. I got fined once crossing it to pop into a shop in a small village, when in England I would cross any kind of road and even park against traffic whereas that is not permitted here. You can get a fine if you park on the wrong side of the road (which I have also had 😂) tolls are really prevalent in Catalonia unfortunately 😢 in a lot of the other autonomous communities they have abolished them whereas here there are still quite a few. Great vid!

[@charliebrmg]

About the low emissions zones: while payment for entry is possible at Barcelona, it is not possible at other cities, such as Madrid. Here, there are two types of low emissions zone: the general one (ZBE) and the central or “special protection” one (ZBEDEP). The general low emissions zone covers all of Madrid’s city limits, with the exception of the M-40 motorway and every other major road going outwards from the M-40 ring. To enter there, you must drive a vehicle with an environmental tag (B, C, ECO or “0 Emisiones” -which obviously means 0 Emissions). Nearly every vehicle manufactured in the last 10 years complies with this requirements, although that’s only true for vehicles with a Spanish license plate, so do check if your UK vehicle complies, otherwise you will be fined. Residents and vehicles with license plates of the historic series (e.g. H 1234 BCD, or with a “VH” tag) are exempt. The special protection low emissions zones cover the historic centre of the city, as well as the A-42 motorway between the M-30 and M-40 junctions. The requirements for those are way higher: - The environmental tag must be ECO or 0 Emissions. - B and C vehicles are allowed to enter ONLY IF they are going to an authorized parking. - Once again, residents and historic vehicles are exempt. If your car does not comply with any of those requirements, your only options to avoid fines is using public transport or hailing a taxi. Also, Madrid’s low emissions zones are active 24/365. All the info is in Madrid City Council’s website.

I drove in the South of Spain last week and everything looks the same to me. Also, if you see "SIN SALIDA" this means NO EXIT Finally, if you're looking at renting a vehicle I recommend a 125 scooter. They do 90 so you keep up with traffic (except Autovia). You can park almost anywhere and with a full UK license you can ride them without L plates and with a passenger. If you do have a passenger, though, you will be slower.

[@AL5520]

Most toll roads have been cancelled and most of those that still exist will be free once the contract of the operator ends. This was a decision by the government that got approved by the EU (they required a maintenance plan to allow this). The AP7 from the French boarder used to be a toll.

All countries use kilometres on road signs and speed limits except the US, UK & Crown Dependencies and Liberia in west Africa. A funny story, I recently had to drive from Seville to La Linea which is the town just across from Gibraltar. I missed my flight due to heavy traffic in the UK. Ended up needing to get a flight to Seville, flight was 3 hours delayed which left me no choice to get a hire car. I was initially quite anxious about driving in Spain but I’ve driven in deep snow and ice up in Finland and Iceland so it should be a breeze. Anyway, the drive down was about 3 1/2 hours and it was awesome, way better than any British road that I’ve driven on. Go to the drop off for the hire car in La Linea, I hit the car against the curb and bust 2 tyres on the passengers side (this was a LHD car). Luckily ended up getting all my money back because of the insurance cover I paid for and some legal reason, the curb should’ve been dropped so I got out of everything.

[@JohannesDahl42]

In my experience, the confusing bit when changing traffic handedness comes when you are turning off a one-way street and toward where you should be crossing the street (i.e. right in the UK and left in Spain) but it's oh so intuitive to keep close to the curb instead, ending up facing oncoming traffic. I did this once when visiting the UK and once more just after returning home. Anyone else?

It's perfectly fine, inside lanes are to continue traveling inside the roundabout, for example in the bigger ones you'll find lights stopping you in the exterior lanes and the interior ones allow you to get to the exit. In the smaller ones the interior is only used if you're alone and want to travel in a more linear fashion (using the lights to indicate switching lanes please), but it's also useful for cars to enter the roundabout while you're using the interior one because they know you're not exiting. Sadly you always have to check because many people like you prefer to exit from inside and a collision can happen. Without people like you, it would work even better.
