Driving in Kiev and in Ukraine in general is hard due to the condition of the roads. A wretched road can confuse any experienced driver and also may sometimes damage the car. Driving in Kiev is rather difficult except the good roads of Khreschatyk. The road markings sometimes are almost transparent and the driver has to guess what to do next in order not to break the driving rules. The best piece of advice is to adjust to the situation on the road observing what other drivers do in situations when the traffic lights are off and the road markings are invisible.It you want to park the worst place to chose is the center of the city. Ordinarily, a parking place with cost you more than three hryvians per hour.In order to drive in Ukraine being a citizen of another country you have to have you International Driving License with you. You may be sure the police will not bother you unless you drive safe and follow the traffic rules. Traffic police officers may ask for an “on-spot solution” in case you broke the rule, but now they mainly write tickets and send the case to the court. Be sure to know the rules so no “driving donation” would be taken if you drove safely.
