Good day,

I have seen a number of posts on this (very helpful) forum about the N332.es website that apparently has an English version of the Spanish Highway Code.

I have been unable to locate that document and was hoping someone could give me ‘detailed’ directions on how to locate it on the site (screen shots would be very helpful).

Thank you in advance.

You can download it here Highway Code in English

The N332 download is here N332 Highway Code

Be aware they are over 500 pages long. Still haven't found the bit that says you can double park if you put your four way flashers on, though.

Thumb through the section ( just after "pedestrian")....... "when approaching a crossing with incoming traffic, do NOT look left or right. It is easier if you have a push-chair ( in front ) which contains 1. shopping, 2. dog, 3. child of tender-years. V

Chapter 4 section 16 i. If a foreigner driving a hire car in Spain, do not use your indicators when turning nor get in the correct lane at a roundabout. This will mark you out as a visitor and make you fair game for any Guardia Civil trafico vehicle passing by.
