ПДР і штрафи

In Uzbekistan, vehicles drive on the right side of the road. Speed limits are typically 60 km/h (37 mph) in urban areas, 90 km/h (56 mph) on rural roads, and 100 km/h (62 mph) on highways, unless otherwise posted. The legal blood alcohol limit for drivers is 0.0%. Headlights are generally required to be on at all times, even during the day. Seatbelts are mandatory for all occupants, and child seats are required for young children, though availability from rental companies may vary.

Парковки

Parking in Tashkent can be found in designated lots, some paid, and along streets. In central areas, paid parking zones are common, often managed by attendants or automated systems. Many hotels offer free parking for guests. Outside the city center, free street parking is more readily available, but always check for signs indicating restrictions.

Заправки

Fuel (petrol and diesel) is widely available throughout Uzbekistan, including Tashkent and along major routes. Petrol stations are common, and most accept cash, with card payments becoming more prevalent but not universally guaranteed. The approximate price for a liter of petrol (gasoline) is around $0.80-$1.00, and diesel is similar, though prices can fluctuate.

Яке авто обрати

For driving within Tashkent and on well-maintained intercity roads, a compact or mid-sized sedan is generally sufficient and economical. If you plan to venture into more rural areas, mountain regions like Chimgan, or require extra comfort for long distances to Samarkand or Bukhara, an SUV or a car with higher ground clearance would be a more suitable choice. Manual transmission cars are common, but automatic options are available, especially in larger rental fleets.
