Driving in Lancaster

Understanding Local Traffic Rules

Like anywhere in the UK, you will be driving on the left side of the road in Lancaster. Speed limits are typically 70mph on motorways and dual carriageways, 60mph on single carriageways, and 30mph in built up areas, unless signs dictate otherwise. Seat belts are a must for all passengers, and phone usage while driving is strictly against the law.

Rental Car Recommendations

For compact city driving and easy parking, a small hatchback car is ideal. However, if you are planning to explore the countryside, an SUV would offer added comfort and better visibility.
