3 Essential Tips for Driving in Goa
- Always Wear Helmets: Traffic police strictly enforce helmet compliance for both rider and pillion on two-wheelers.
- Carry Original Licence & Digital ID: Keep your original Driving Licence and digital booking voucher handy during routine check-posts.
- Verify Fuel Levels at Pickup: Note down fuel levels during the 2–5 photo handover inspection with your host. Returning with equal fuel level is standard practice.
