Driving in Greece is on the Right and the laws conform to those of continental Europe. In order to legally drive, you need to have with you an EU driving license or an International driving permit. Driving is not very difficult if you are used to the Mediterranean way. Parking is a headache, especially during morning hours. Most of the road signs are displayed in both English and Greek. The speed limit for cars in residential areas is 40 km/h (25 mph), on Avenues 80 km/h (50 mph), and on Highways 120 km/h (75 mph). Seatbelts are compulsory by law for all passengers, although the police are not very strict about enforcing that law within the city limits.

Petrol Stations can easily be found within Athens and are open six days a week, between 8 am and 8 pm. The measuring unit for fuel is the liter. All stations sell unleaded (95 octane), super unleaded (98 octane) and Diesel.
