Vožnja v Slovenia (Slovenija)

Mandatory in the car: warning triangle, first-aid kit, set of spare bulbs, reflective jacket, and a spare wheel, tool or other device that lets you drive on with a damaged tyre.
Winter equipment: from 15 November to 15 March, and outside those dates whenever winter conditions exist (snow, ice). Winter tyres (M+S) or summer tyres plus snow chains for the drive wheels; minimum tread 3 mm.
Daytime running lights or dipped headlights must be used.

Passenger cars (toll class 2A: up to 3.5 t, height above the front axle up to 1.3 m) need an e-vignette on motorways and expressways, bought from DARS (evinjeta.dars.si), AMZS and points of sale. Enter the correct plate number and country; if the plate does not match, the toll is not deemed paid. Prices on the DARS page: annual 117.50 EUR, monthly 32.00 EUR, weekly 16.00 EUR.

Cars and vans under 3.5 t: 50 km/h in built-up areas, 90 km/h outside built-up areas; motorways 130 km/h (sign images also show 110). With a trailer: 90 km/h outside built-up areas, 100 km/h on motorways. Alcohol limit 0.5 g/kg (0.24 mg/l breath); 0.0 for novice and professional drivers. Hands-free phone use only.

112 single emergency number (fire, rescue, ambulance). Police 113 (also via 112). AMZS roadside assistance 1987.

Third-party liability insurance is required. For EU/EEA-registered cars the home policy covers liability across the EU and the number plate serves as proof of insurance, so a green card is normally not needed; AMZS lists the green card among documents to check before travelling. Non-EU vehicles may need a green card or border insurance.

AMZS pre-trip vehicle check: tyre condition and pressure including the spare (raise pressure about 0.2 bar for extra load); if towing, check trailer tyres, tow hitch and lights; oil and brake fluid levels; washer fluid; lights; battery; wiper blades; mandatory equipment and first-aid kit expiry. Have the air conditioning checked before the heat and replace the cabin air filter; do not run the air conditioning at maximum even on hot days.
