Driving in Grenada

The rules of the road as our desk recorded them, native unit first.

Driving side

Left

Speed limits

32 / 64 / 64 km/h · 20 / 40 / 40 mph

urban / rural / motorway

International permit (IDP)

Not required

A local visitor’s permit is mandatory - EC$60 / ~US$22, arranged on the spot by the rental company (or the Traffic Department) against your home licence.

Blood alcohol limit

0.08 % is the commonly cited limit; enforcement is light - mountain hairpins are the real deterrent

Tolls

None - no toll roads

Headlights

Low beams at night and in mountain rain showers

Child seats

Rental stock is thin - reserve ahead or bring your own for small children

Limits are lightly posted; assume ~30 km/h through villages and let the terrain set the pace elsewhere. Roads are steep and blind-cornered - sound the horn as locals do, and give buses room.

Rules change - verify with an official source before you rent.
