Vanlige farer på veien

Aggressive driving with speeding, tailgating, and overtaking common throughout

Motorcycles and mopeds entering blind spots — very common on roads

Pedestrians crossing outside designated crossings in urban areas

Tourist drivers confused by left-hand driving causing unpredictable behaviour

Livestock and wildlife crossing rural and mountain roads without warning

Narrow winding mountain roads in Troodos without shoulders or guardrails

Unlit roads in rural areas lacking street lighting at night

Forest fire road closures during the May-October dry season

Værutfordringer

Winter rain makes roads slippery — limited drainage on some roads

Troodos Mountains have winter snowstorms and ice — snow chains may be required

Spring and autumn Saharan dust storms reduce visibility significantly

Summer temperatures exceeding 40°C can affect tyre pressure and cause engine overheating

Farer etter veitype

Farer i byområder

Aggressive driving is common with frequent horn use in cities

Pedestrians crossing outside designated crossings — especially near markets

Tourist drivers unfamiliar with left-hand traffic creating hazardous situations

Narrow streets in old town centres with limited visibility

Farer på landeveier

Narrow winding mountain roads in Troodos without shoulders or guardrails

Livestock and wildlife crossing roads without warning

Some rural roads lack street lighting entirely

Forest fires may close roads suddenly during the May-October dry season

Farer på motorvei

Minimum motorway speed of 65 km/h — slow vehicles create hazards

Speeding and tailgating are widespread on motorways

Heavy goods vehicles restricted from inside lane on 3-lane motorways

Mopeds prohibited on motorways — watch for them on access roads

Unike faktorer

One of few Mediterranean countries driving on the left — British colonial legacy
Road markings take priority over road signs — unique rule in Cyprus
Theory test is oral/verbal conducted by examiner, not computerised
Forest fires and flash flooding can close roads suddenly and without warning

Forberedelsestips

Remember that road markings override road signs — always follow markings when they conflict

Check weather and fire alerts before mountain driving — conditions change rapidly in Troodos

Carry two warning triangles — they are mandatory equipment for all vehicles in Cyprus
