Driving in an unfamiliar country can be stressful for many people, navigating around a busy town or city to find your hotel or meeting point by travel safety, then trying to find parking is added pressure you don’t need. It also increases your risk significantly, not only due to the overarching threat of getting lost and taking a wrong turn into a dangerous area, or being involved in an accident, but also because of what may happen if stopped by the police. If you don’t speak the language and you can’t communicate, it’s quite possible a simple situation could escalate in the wrong direction quite quickly.
