Frequently Asked Questions about Driving in Turkey

What documents do I need for driving in Turkey?

The mandatory documents are: a valid international passport or national ID card, a valid driver's license, the vehicle's registration certificate (must be in the driver's name), and a valid 'Green Card' insurance policy that covers the territory of Turkey.

How does the road toll system (HGS) work in Turkey?

Turkey uses an electronic HGS system. Immediately after the border, you must purchase an HGS sticker (from a PTT post office or gas station) and load it with credit. Passing through toll booths is automatic and non-stop. Ensure you have sufficient funds in your account.

What is the main border crossing and are there any tips for crossing?

The main and busiest crossing point from Bulgaria is Kapitan Andreevo/Kapıkule. For a faster crossing, travel on weekdays and avoid peak holiday times. Traveling overnight is also a good strategy.

What are the roads and main traffic rules like in Turkey?

Motorways (otoyol) are in excellent condition. Main state roads (D-devlet yolu) are also good. General speed limits are: 50 km/h in urban areas, 90 km/h on rural roads, and 120-140 km/h on motorways. At roundabouts, vehicles already inside the circle have the right of way.

Are there differences between summer and winter driving?

Yes, significant differences. In the summer, traffic along the coast is very heavy. In winter, central and eastern Turkey (e.g., the route to Ankara/Cappadocia) can have snow and icy conditions, and winter tires are mandatory.

What are fuel prices like and can I pay by card?

Fuel prices are considerably higher than in Balkan countries. It is highly recommended to fill your tank before crossing the border. Almost all gas stations accept credit/debit card payments.

Is it safe to drive in Turkey and what should I do at a police checkpoint?

Yes, it is generally safe. Turkish drivers can be more spirited, so drive defensively. Police checkpoints (çevirme) are common. Remain calm, present your documents, and follow their instructions. They are usually routine checks.

Which navigation app works best in Turkey?

Google Maps and Waze work very well throughout the country. For major cities like Istanbul, the Yandex Navigator app often provides the most accurate real-time traffic information.

What is the parking situation like in cities and resorts?

In large cities and the central areas of resorts, parking is mostly paid (otopark). Most hotels offer free parking. Finding a spot is easier in smaller towns and villages.

Why choose a road trip over a flight for a holiday in Turkey?

A car gives you unparalleled freedom. You can stop wherever you want, discover hidden beaches, visit authentic villages off the beaten path, carry more luggage, and turn the journey to your final destination into part of the adventure.
