Istanbul Driving Information


 
Driving is on the right side of the road.


 
All Istanbul Ataturk Airport rental cars are automatic transmission.


 
Your local drivers' licence is required.


An International Drivers' Permit (or IDP) may be required, especially if your local drivers' licence is in a language other than the local language (you may inquire when you pick up your car).


 
Istanbul Driving Stress Level: 7/10

Driving around Istanbul can be slow and most routes generally take considerably longer than maps of the city might suggest. Rush hours can be especially busy, with a number of bottlenecks causing traffic delays. Locals driving around Istanbul and Turkey tend to be fairly aggressive and ignore many traffic rules. Taxi drivers appear to rule the roads around Istanbul and regularly hoot their horns, touting for business.


Parking in and around central Istanbul is generally insufficient and there is a lack of covered parking garages. Many mid-range hotels close to the city centre either offer car parks or are sited close to parking areas. Street parking is also available in various locations, with parking meters nearby.
