Advices for Car Trips through Luxemburg

Previous tips
22. In Luxembourg, there is a severe punishment provided for transportation and use of radar detectors and devices of similar action. If the prohibited device is detected during a police check, it will surely be confiscated and the offender will face not only a heavy fine, but also imprisonment of up to eight years.
23. However, motorists are allowed to use navigation software, which allows determining the location of fixed cameras.
24. Roads of Luxembourg are distinguished by numerous signs and signals. If you follow them carefully, you will find it hard to get lost on local roads or break traffic regulations. Local road signs provide all necessary information to drivers.

Renting a Car in Luxemburg - Recommendations

If you need a car with an automatic transmission, it is recommended to book it in advance. Cars with automatic transmissions are often sparse in Luxemburg, so the rental confirmation may take a longer period.

When selecting a specific model for traveling throughout Luxemburg, we recommend to take into consideration some practical apects. If you are going to drive mostly in the cities, then a car of a small size is preferable, while for long distance trips (and trips in the mountains) we recommend to choose a larger and more powerful car.

Prior your car retrun, please clean the salon from a garbage, and do not forget to take away all your belongings from the passenger compartment.

At the car return time, please ask the officer to make a visual inspection of the vehicle for defects and to sign the acceptance report. Keep the invoice and the acceptance report for next few months.

25. Local drivers are characterized by disciplined behavior. They are very attentive and try to follow all traffic regulations. If a driver violates basic traffic regulations, it is very likely that he is a foreign tourist who simply doesn’t know traffic regulations or is used to freestyle driving.
26. When making a ride on roads of Luxembourg, drivers must carry a standard set of documents – a driving license, a “green card”, and the vehicle certificate. These documents must be submitted at first request of a police officer.
27. Vast majority of vehicles on Luxembourg roads are made by European car manufacturers. You will rarely see "guests" from distant countries on local roads. Numerous bridges and tunnels remain one of main features of local roads. Many travelers from other countries note this interesting peculiarity.
28. Bike remains a popular mode of transport with local residents. It is very comfortable to use it even on busy roads. All major roads have a special lane for cyclists. Cars are not allowed to occupy that lane. These lanes for cyclists are always marked with a corresponding sign, and in the capital they are painted in bright red.
29. Just like in many European cities, historic districts of Luxembourg cities are the most difficult place for drivers. Narrow one-way streets can be found in all historic centers. They are usually very twisty, so it is often not possible to get to the object of interest on the first try.
30. Travelers, who are used to saving, will be pleasantly surprised when they see prices at local parking lots and petrol stations. For example, the cost of one hour of parking in the center of a large city will be no more than 1.5 euro, and in suburbs you can park the car just for 0.4 euros per hour. If you want to leave your car at a parking lot at night, this service will cost you approximately 8 euro.
31. The cost of a liter of petrol is about 1.3 euro, which is much cheaper than in many neighboring countries. Some residents of Germany and Belgium prefer to fuel their vehicles exclusively in Luxembourg. The fuel prices there are so attractive that they cover a ride from a neighboring country.
