If traffic jams form, keep to the right or left as far as possible so that a lane that is at least 3 metres wide is created in the middle for emergency vehicles. Parking in a narrow street is prohibited unless there is still at least 6 metres left for other traffic. Parking by a yellow solid line is prohibited.

A warning triangle, a safety vest, first-aid box and spare tyre (or tyre repair kit) are mandatory in the car. It is recommended that there be safety vests present for all passengers. Having replacement light bulbs available is also recommended.

Most Czechian motorways require a vignette. These vignettes can be purchased for ten days, for a month and for one year. Vignettes can be purchased at the border, at post offices and major petrol stations. A caravan or trailer does not require a separate vignette.
For more information: motorway.cz.
Vehicles (including motorhomes) over 3.5 tonnes pay toll per kilometre driven, using an electronic toll box. For more information: mytocz.eu/en.
Motorways without toll can be recognised by an additional sign with a vignette crossed out or with the text ‘Bez poplatku’ (no charge).

Place your warning triangle on the motorway at least 100 metres (or else 50 metres) behind the car if it forms an obstacle for the other traffic. The driver must wear a safety vest. If you have had a breakdown, call the alarm number of your breakdown assistance insurer. You can also call a Czech emergency breakdown service: +420 261 104 345 or 1230 (UAMK) or +420 222 551 144 or 1214 (ACCR).
If there is an accident resulting in physical injury or material damage amounting to more than € 4,000, you are required to call the police.
If there is visible damage to the car, ask for a police report; this will be needed at the border on your way home.
