Traffic Rules
In Romania, drivers should follow clear national road rules and pay special attention to speed limits, seat belt use, lights, and zero alcohol tolerance.
- Drive on the right side of the road.
- Seat belts are mandatory for the driver and passengers.
- The alcohol limit is 0.0, so do not drink before driving.
- Typical speed limits are 50 km/h in cities, 90 km/h outside built up areas, 100 km/h on expressways, and 130 km/h on motorways.
- Headlights are required outside urban areas at all times, and in cities at night or in poor visibility.

Parking
Parking rules vary by city, but in Bucharest paid public parking is common in central areas, with typical rates of about €2 per hour in zone 0, €1 per hour in zone 1, and about €0.50 per hour in zone 2.
Payment is usually available by app, SMS, or parking machine, and drivers should always check local signs because time limits and special local conditions may apply.
Gas Stations
The most common fuel station brands in Romania include OMV Petrom, Rompetrol, MOL, Lukoil, and SOCAR, so it is easy to find fuel in cities and along major roads.
Recent national average prices are about €1.57 per litre for petrol and about €1.63 per litre for diesel, although rates can vary slightly by region and station.
Toll Roads
Romania uses an electronic vignette system called rovinieta for most national roads and motorways, so drivers usually need a valid pass before traveling on these routes.
For passenger cars, current prices are about €2.50 for 1 day, €3 for 10 days, €5 for 30 days, €8 for 60 days, and €28 for 12 months.
