Port of Spain Driving Stress Level: 6/10

Many of the smaller roads on the island can be extremely winding, so take it slow and careful. Also be beware of locals, who often choose to drive in the middle of the road, so stay on your side and hold your ground when approaching other vehicles. Roads between major towns on the island are good, although the traffic around the busy Port of Spain is frequently heavy. Independence Square can be especially difficult to drive around at most times of the day.


There are two main highways on Trinidad and they stretch in a north-to-south direction, and also east-to-west, being intersected by numerous smaller roads along the way, which can become narrow. There are plenty of places to park your car and this is not usually a problem.
