Parking

There are many areas in inner cities where parking is only allowed after a fee is paid. Normally you have to look for a parking machine, buy a ticket for a certain length of time and display this ticket on the inside of the windscreen. If you park without a ticket or if the ticket has run out, a fine is usually imposed. If you hold up traffic by parking illegally then your car may be towed away. Parking spaces are in short supply in most cities and usually expensive. It is advisable to use public transport instead.
