To Malaysia by car

Everything a motorist needs to know about Malaysia.

If you intend to travel around the continental part of the country, then car rental in Malaysia will come in handy. There is a well-developed branch of expressways on the territory of the state.

These roads cross the country from the western part to the eastern part and from the southern to the northern part. Thus, renting a car in Malaysia allows you to see a huge number of sights that meet on the way.

You can rent a vehicle at any airport in the country. The price of car rental in Malaysia is considered to be the cheapest in all of Southeast Asia. On average, a budget vehicle will cost 180 MYR.

To execute a vehicle rental agreement, you need to provide:

  • An international passport
  • International driver's license
  • Bank card with the amount required for the deposit

The driver must be at least 23 years old and his driving experience cannot be less than one year. The cost of gasoline in Malaysia is not included in the rental price. Moreover, according to unspoken conditions, the renter must take care of any problems with the police.

The cost of a liter of gasoline in Malaysia does not exceed 2 MYR. Oddly enough, diesel is more expensive at MYR 2.3.

Malaysia's traffic rules are left-hand drive. All passengers must wear seatbelts. You can only drive on the roads with dipped beam headlights on.

While driving on the roads, some caution should be exercised as local drivers often violate traffic rules in Malaysia and a fine can be imposed on a tourist. According to local law, the legal blood alcohol level while driving cannot exceed 0.8 ppm.

Malaysia has a speed limit that states you can drive 50-70 km/h in cities, 90 km/h in the suburbs and no more than 110 km/h on highways.
