Häufige Fehler von Touristen
- 1Not having a TAG device for Santiago's urban highways — there are no toll booths; without a TAG you pay double the rate
- 2Underestimating the length of Chile — it is over 4,300 km from north to south, and driving times are much longer than expected
- 3Driving in Santiago without understanding the vehicle restriction system (Restricción Vehicular) — certain license plates are banned on specific days
- 4Not carrying snow chains when crossing Andean passes in winter — it is a legal requirement and conditions change rapidly
