Montreal Urban LifeCar Driving Tips
Montreal car driving tips start with a minimum driving age at 16 years old. Maximum speed limits are 100km/h or 62m/h on highways, 80km/h or 50m/h on rural highways and 50km/h or 30m/h in built-up areas. The present Montreal administration recently agreed to reduce the speed limit from 50km/h to 40km/h in residential areas. In school zones the speed limit is already at 30km/h.
It is illegal to turn right at a red light on the island of Montreal. Those turns, however, are legal elsewhere in the province unless posted otherwise. Be aware of pedestrians though. Especially in downtown Montreal they tend to cross the streets on red lights. Safety measures have recently been set up and the situation is slowly improving.
Parking Tips
Montreal has four rate parking zones. The zones are in service every day of the week and the map of paid on-street parking zones could help you find the right parking space. Off-street parking also managed by Stationnement de Montréal provides 41 lots with 3,625 short-term and monthly permit parking spaces. Business hours and rates vary from one lot to another. Consult the off-street parking lots map for business hours and rates and click on any lot for details.
