Driving Advice while in New Zealand
These are some general guidelines. Please check the NZ Road Code
supplied in the campervan for specific information

Driving on New Zealand roads can require extra care as extremes of weather and terrain often make driving hazardous. Please read the advisory notes below and take care when driving.

• Drive on the left and give way to the right.
• Speed limits in New Zealand are rigorously enforced.
• Carry your driving licence at all times when driving - you may be required to produce it.
• Fixed and mobile speed cameras operate throughout the country. You are liable for any speeding or parking tickets you incur during the hire period.
• The maximum open road speed for vehicles like this campervan over 3,500kg is 90 km/hr. 
• All vehicle occupants must wear a safety belt or approved child restraint at all times while the vehicle is moving.
• Cycle helmets are compulsory.
• Give way to the right, and indicate when entering or leaving roundabouts.
• New Zealand Police actively discourages drinking and driving with mobile breath testing operations in most areas. If you are stopped in a random breath test operation, you are required to comply by law. You are also required to give your name, address and produce your driver licence. Penalties for drink driving offences are severe.

New Zealand crime rates are lower than many other countries, but you can help yourself with a few simple crime prevention guidelines.

• Keep copies of all important documents
• Keep your vehicle locked and your possessions out of sight
• Avoid walking alone in deserted or central city streets late at night
