Driving in Finland: rest areas, seasons and rules

Finland has no road tolls, but long distances, winter conditions and wildlife make planned breaks important. Here is what to expect and which rules are worth knowing before you set off.

Speed limit on motorways
120 km/h in summer and 100 km/h in winter, roughly from late October to early April.
Tolls
None.
Lorry driving bans
None.
Emergency number
112.

Types of stop

A levähdysalue is a rest area with parking and often toilets and tables; smaller parking areas are signed P-alue. Service stations (huoltoasema) along the main roads have fuel, food and toilets and are the usual places for a longer break.

Wildlife and winter

Elk and, in Lapland, reindeer on the road are a real danger, especially at dusk in autumn; warning signs mark the worst stretches. Winter tyres are compulsory in winter, and days are short in the north, so stop before you get tired.
