Useful Information: Vehicle Preparation and Spanish Rules
Before starting your journey, it is advisable to perform a check of your vehicle. Checking the oil, coolant, and ensuring all lights are working correctly will help you avoid potential incidents. Do not forget to also verify the tire pressure and replace any that are excessively worn, including the spare wheel.
Keep in mind that certain roads, particularly sections of the AP (Autopista) network, include tolls.
Fuel
You will have no problem refuelling at any gas station in the country if your vehicle uses petrol or diesel. If your car requires LPG, be aware that it is less frequent in the city for safety reasons. We advise you to fill up before starting your journey, not only to ensure a full tank but also because prices may be higher if you fill up on the motorway.

Road Emergency:
In case of an emergency or accident, the first thing is to ensure your safety and remain calm. If possible, drive your car to the nearest parking area, and if this is not possible, try to park it on the side of the road using the hazard lights. Put on the reflective vest and, once worn, place the warning triangles in front of and behind the car if it is a two-way road, and only behind the car if it is a single-carriageway road. Call your insurer or, in an emergency, dial **112**. Remember that if you are on a motorway, emergency call stations are available along the route.
Speed Limits:
Respecting the speed limits is as important as keeping your vehicle in good condition. Currently, the speed limits in force are: 50 km/h in urban areas, between 90 and 100 km/h on secondary suburban roads, and 120 km/h on motorways (autopistas and autovías).
