Hi,

Does anyone know if there are driving lessons available in English in Pego? I have a full EU driving licence for over 25 years. I just want a couple of lessons to get used to driving on the other side of the road, particularly using Spanish roundabouts!

Thanks in advance.

A website that may help with regulations regarding driving in Spain is N332.   It is for English speaking people and is run in collaboration with officers of the Guardia Civil.   Trafico, who deal with driving stuff in Spain, is part of the Guardia Civil police set up.   The site has an English version of the Spanish equivalent of the Highway Code on it.

N332 also has a Facebook page.

Best advice on Spanish roundabouts.

1. There are no rules

2. Other drivers indicators are no indication of where they are actually going.

3. Other drivers positions on the roundabout are no indication of where they are actually going.

4. ALWAYS expect the unexpected.

5. Assume NOTHING

6. ALWAYS proceed with caution

On a plus point, it's safer than roundabouts in Paris.
