Driving a car in Malta
The maximum speed Limit in Malta is
80 kph on the highway.
That's right, you read it correctly. Malta has one of the lowest maximum
speed limit in Europe at 80 kilometers per hour.
Cross border rentals are only allowed to Gozo, Malta's sister island.
All national and international driving licences are accepted in Malta.
Driving licence needs to be unendorsed and held for at least one year.
Minimum age for drivers is 21 years.
Maximum age is 75 years. Drivers over 70 years who are not EU citizens
need to provide a valid copy of doctor's certificate and driver's licence.
For drivers form EU- only a valid driving licence is required.
Travel Tips and Advisories:
Although the legal drunk-driving limit is .08 mg/ml, we recommend you stay
well below this because of the existence of much confusion over the issue.
The legal statutes of Malta are replete with text explaining how, when and
where they can take possession of a vehicle so our advice is, don't drink
and drive, and be careful out there.
