7. Preparing for Nature’s Fury in Iceland
Iceland’s traffic regulations are as unique as its dramatic landscapes. Drivers must ensure their vehicles are insured against natural phenomena such as volcanic ash and extreme wind gusts. These rules are necessary because Iceland’s unpredictable and sometimes harsh weather conditions can be hazardous. In some regions of the country, the terrain requires vehicles with four-wheel drive, making this law not only logical but essential for safety. Whether you’re navigating the rugged highlands or cruising along the scenic Ring Road, these precautions are vital for surviving Iceland’s wild nature.
