It is prohibited to drive while using headsets or headphones, whether using them to listen to music or make phone calls. If you get caught, there is a hefty €135 fine.
Drivers must respect the following speed limits: 130 km/h on highways, 110 km/h on four-lane roads, 90 km/h on other road types and 50 km/h in built up areas.
In wet weather conditions, motorway speed limits are 20 km/h less than in dry conditions. If your visibility is less than 50 meters, the speed limit is 50 km/h on all road types.
