Traffic rules

There are some Indian traffic rules you need to follow while in India. Given below is a list of some guidelines for ensuring traffic safety in India

Indian government recognizes the International Driver's License (IDL) though it is safer to rent a car with a professional driver.

If you are planning to stay in India for a long time and have a valid driver's license (not necessarily an IDL) issued by any competent authority in your country, then getting a driver license in India is no big problem.

If your International Driver's License (IDL) has expired, you can easily get a local driving license in India by submitting your expired license, along with a letter of introduction from your country's Embassy.

Traffic in India moves on the left side. So, be extra cautious while crossing the road, especially if your country follows right side driving.

Violations of the provisions of the Act are punishable with heavy fines and imprisonment.

Foreigners are therefore, advised not to buy any wild animals or their products and derivatives like articles of ivory, fur and skin.
