🔐 DRIVE SAFE & WITHOUT FINES

While driving in Azerbaijan, please adhere to the following safety measures:
  • Use the Waze app. It displays the speed limits and alerts you about radars and police vehicles.
  • Always fasten your seat belts. This is mandatory for all passengers.
  • Use your turn signals when changing lanes.

In Azerbaijan, the permitted speed limit is 10 km/h. If the maximum speed sign states 60 km/h, a fine is not issued when driving up to 70 km/h. When exceeding 71 km/h or more, the violation is recorded by cameras, and the driver is issued a fine.

In case of an accident, be sure to contact emergency services:

  • Police: 102
  • Ambulance: 103
  • Fire Department: 112
Following these guidelines will help ensure your safety on the road.
