Apia Driving Stress Level: 3/10

Samoa now drives on the left hand side of the road after changing from the right on September 7th 2009, but most of the cars are left hand drive, since they are from either American Samoa or America. Previously cars were imported from Australia and New Zealand but a change in legislation in the late '90s made it illegal for people to import right hand drive cars. It was to allow access to cheaper cars from Japan, New Zealand and Australia that the change was made.


The speed limit within the Apia area is 40kmph (25mph), and outside of Apia it is 56 km/hr (35mph).
