Saveti o bezbednosti
Osnovni saveti o bezbednosti
- A car is useful but not essential - Light Link rail, buses, and rideshares are good options
- Keep headlights on at all times - overcast skies make dark vehicles hard to see
- Roads are very slippery when rain starts after a dry spell (oil rises to the surface)
- Be prepared for steep hills, especially in Queen Anne, Capitol Hill, and West Seattle
- Watch for cyclists - Seattle is very bike-friendly and cyclists are everywhere
Najbolje vreme za vožnju
Mid-morning (10 AM-12 PM) and early afternoon (1-3 PM) on weekdays
Upozorenje za kišnu sezonu
Seattle gets steady drizzle October-May. While individual storms are rarely heavy, constant wet roads require longer following distances and lower speeds. The first rain after a dry spell is the most dangerous.
Oblasti koje treba izbegavati (za početnike)
- I-5 through downtown during rush hours (some of the worst congestion in the US)
- I-405 eastside corridor during commute times
- SR-520 and I-90 floating bridges during peak hours
- Mercer Street in South Lake Union during evening rush

Česta pitanja: Vožnja u gradu Seattle
Do I need a car in Seattle?
For the city itself, not necessarily. Downtown, Capitol Hill, and nearby neighborhoods are served by light rail and buses. A car is valuable for day trips to Mount Rainier, the San Juan Islands ferry, or the Olympic Peninsula.
Does it really rain all the time in Seattle?
Seattle gets less total rainfall than New York or Miami, but has more rainy days (150+ per year). Rain is usually a light drizzle rather than downpours. Keep headlights on and maintain extra following distance on wet roads.
How do Washington State Ferries work for drivers?
Ferries to Bainbridge Island, Bremerton, and the San Juans carry vehicles. Arrive 30-60 minutes early (earlier in summer). Pay per vehicle at the terminal. Reservations are available and recommended for San Juan Islands routes.
What is the Good To Go pass?
Good To Go is Washington's electronic toll pass for the SR-520 bridge and other toll facilities. Without one, your plate is photographed and you're billed by mail at higher rates. Rental cars may have built-in transponders - check with your rental company.
