Driving Schools in Оденсе

Drive on the Right — Denmark drives on the right side of the road. Overtake only on the left. At roundabouts, traffic already in the roundabout has priority unless otherwise signed. Left-hand drive vehicles are standard.

BAC Limit 0.05% (0.5‰) — The blood alcohol limit is 0.05% (0.5‰). Since July 2025, new drivers (first 3 years) face a stricter 0.02% (0.2‰) limit. DUI fines are calculated as promille × monthly gross salary. BAC above 2.0‰ triggers vanvidskørsel vehicle confiscation.

Klippekort Clip System — Serious violations earn clips: phone use, red light, tailgating, speeding 30%+ over. 3 clips in 3 years = unconditional licence revocation. New drivers: only 2 clips allowed. Each clip is a serious warning that stays on your record for 3 years.

Cyclist Priority When Turning Right — Drivers must yield to cyclists when turning right at intersections. Denmark has extensive cycling infrastructure with dedicated cycle lanes. Failure to yield to cyclists is a serious offence. Always check mirrors and blind spots for cyclists before turning.

Vanvidskørsel — Vehicle Confiscation — Since March 2021, police can confiscate and auction your vehicle for extreme reckless driving: driving 100%+ over the speed limit, exceeding 200 km/h, or BAC above 2.0‰. This applies even if the vehicle belongs to someone else. The law was introduced to deter the most dangerous driving behaviour.

Daytime Running Lights Mandatory — Dipped headlights or daytime running lights must be used at all times while driving, day and night, year-round. This applies to all vehicles. Failure to use lights carries a fine.
