Local laws and etiquette
• Always have your passport and driver’s license with you when driving in Canada, in case you get stopped by police.
• You can turn right at a red traffic light (provided you come to a complete stop first, there is no oncoming traffic and no contradictory sign saying ‘no turn on red’).
• In Canadian cities, you have to park with your car pointing in the direction of the traffic on the correct side of the road, otherwise you will be fined.
• Do not park within 5m of a fire hydrant.
