- Dipped headlights must stay on 24 hours a day in all seasons.
- Winter tires are mandatory 1 Dec–31 Mar when winter conditions exist; many rentals include these.
- Entering central Stockholm requires the congestion tax (trängselskatt). Cameras record the license plate and the rental company passes the cost to you.

- Watch for moose and deer, especially at dawn and dusk on forest roads like the E4 and Road 73.
