Sandakan Driving Information
Driving is on the left side of the road.
All Sandakan Airport rental cars are automatic transmission.
Your
local drivers' licence is required.
An International Drivers' Permit (or IDP) may be required, especially if your local drivers' licence is in a language other than the local language (you may inquire when you pick up your car).
Sandakan Driving Stress Level: 5/10All major roads in Sandakan and suburban areas are well tarred and fairly maintained. Driving orientation is on the left (like most of the former colonies of the British Empire) and is generally slow-paced. Speed limits on dual-carriageway roads can reach a maximum of 90 km/h and can be reduced to 80 km/h or 70 km/h during festival seasons.
Tourists from cosmopolitan cities may not appreciate the driving attitude of local road users. Some drivers tend to make a turn or overtake without using indicators, and others drive beyond the speed limit. You may also find a handful of road hoggers (cars, lorries and even motorcycles alike). Honk car horns and flash high beams with careful discretion as it could seen as an aggressive act.
Sandakan Airport Car Rental Recommendations
IHateTaxis.com recommends a Sandakan Airport car rental.
Self-driving in and around Sandakan can be challengingly but enjoyable. Directional signs in Sandakan are inadequate and it takes a good road map and a good sense of direction to get you around. This is however a relatively convenient way to get around the city and Sabah.
