Drive safely and legally

[Globetrotter]

Fifi, The law is, you have to wear shoes that cover your feet, or be fined 

The same in the UK, I was once sternly told off by a police lady for driving without my shoes on, even though I knew her.

The way I understand the speed signs on the crawler lanes is that if you are incapable of exceeding the posted speed, you must remain in the 'slow' lane. Is that wrong?

Also, at the end of the lane the slow traffic has to give way to the fast, which seems to be bizarre.

I think you have it wrong way round Rveee

My understanding is the speed signs are max speed per lane, and the max is in line with the normal speed for the road 70 kph for example and 50kph in slow lane

It would appear also for merging lanes that fast give way to slow.

But the signs are blue.

The European standard is that round red circles are prohibitory, so would create an offence of exceeding that speed (or for example prevent you from turning right), blue signs are compulsory so you must drive at least that speed (or must turn right at a junction).

The UK adopted these protocols when we joined the Common Market.

I find the best way to approach a roundabout is to drive a Snowplough , you have to use both lanes ! . Been looking on all car hire sites still not found a snowplough yet not giving up though.
