Summary:
Driving in Naples is a true test of courage given the anarchic local driving habits, the confusing one-way streets and the restrictions on non-resident traffic in the historic centre, which is typically closed between 0800-1830.
Traffic in Naples drives on the right and the minimum driving age is 18 years. Speed limits are 130kph (80mph) on motorways, 90/110kph (56/68mph) on country roads and 50kph (30mph) in urban areas. All those without an EU licence must carry an International Driving Permit. A Green Card is useful, though not compulsory for EU nationals.
