I get frequent messages from people concerned about driving in Albania. Is it dangerous? Are the other drivers crazy? Are there roads?? Well, this video should answer all those questions.

small notice when driving in albania the law demands you to keep the lights on 24/7 its legit not a joke
Same in Switzerland
Kostikas jannakis a lot of countries have the same law.
Ikr
Since when?
I drove all summer up and down lok
They're albanian horses boddy!! The don't get you in english, tell them "ec" 😂
Hahahahaha 😅😅😅😅 you need to speak Albanian in order to understand better this world 😅😅😅
Thank you for this video, that was a question of mine! We are coming to visit Albania next month and will be driving everywhere. It is a concern of mine but can’t wait to see this beautiful country. We are passing by Nehemiah U if you need anything from the US😉
wow that’s so cool! i would love some Hot Tamales or Mike N Ike’s if you feel like it. 😁 been missing those candies recently
Driving through Tirana was exciting :D Nearly had an accident...
its normal when you drive to different country your driving skills are decreased
You said everything perfect! When I was there in August, most of the time I just thought some of these people are nuts. Passing in crazy areas and mopeds and people going where ever they want! Put I had A great time any. I went Tirana, Berat, Vlore, Saranda.
Shume bukur! I like how you said they’re only thinking about themselves! 😂😂
Long time not see your comments si e ke amerikanin
Bro you deserve 100K subs by the end of 2020 no cap
Thank you for the video. Having driven in Turkey, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Thailand and Laos, I have no concerns about Albania.
mid 00s when i was travelling from greece to albania with my parents the roads were by far worse and very dangerous . driving by edges of mountains about 50% of the trip after albanian borders to my city
now its reduced to 20% approx.
Why are you coming here if you don't like the country ?
You forgot to mention excessive honking especially in cities.
People in Albania use honks not to piss people off but as a courtesy.
check out Kisha E Lacit .. its a beautiful church I'll be visiting Albania next week :)
Is beautiful to drive now that the main roads are in good condition but for every foreigner that's reading this comment i have a little advice,
Stay as far as you can form the other guy ahead because we dont use blinkers, and forget about priority in the roundabouts cause most of albanians dont know that..
If you can drive in Brussels you can drive in Albania 😂 there are some differences but just pay attention to the style of driving of the locals and you'll be ok. One tip though: don't use your blinkers too much because others might get confused. Using 4 blinkers to double park however is highly encouraged 😀 in short: driving in Albania isn't that bad!
This is a beautiful country, but people should never throw stuff on side of road.
I live in albania and I drive here 14 years and never crashed
Hello can you explain about taking albania license?
This was recommended to me in 2024
If you get pulled over, don't give them Leke (Albanian money), US dollar or Euro only, the threw away Canadian money :(
Nice man. Ever driven in Rome or Sardinia? Pretty hairy! Or Egypt for that matter! As you say, most places have their dangers. The M25 in UK is a nightmare! 😂
i haven't! actually haven't been to either one...
Well you said it, its basically about the person, they just want to get from A to B and that's it, other cars, people and objects they are just in the way. I think the issue is rooted deep in the Albanian psyche. It may have to do with the fact that people are used to solve issues on their own, eg. survivalistic approach to solve issues. As such, you must work toward your objective and get it done. If that objective happens to be driving, or NOT staying in line (why waste time right), or fixing your house (but forget common areas), you get your stuff done and in the process no attention is paid to other details such as the fact that you may interfere with other peoples spaces or safety Just my 2 cents anyway. Thumbs up for the work done!
considering albanias population compared to other nations it could be said that driving in albania is safer...
generally road laws are frequently disobeyed and if one could describe driving and traffic in albania in two words it would be described as: organised chaos 😂
advice for tourists driving in and around albania...take your time, plan your trip in advance, stop on the way and ask locals of the road conditions ahead(they are always willing to help)
lol yeah the police rarely drive as they would surely spill their coffee 😂
awesome video bro..sending out the love!
no label considering the small country and its small population driving on the roads of Albania is a Death-Trap!
Drivers ( the majority...) do not have the minimum of what is called safe -driving- conscience!
The driving from locals is more than aggressive and the lack of good infrastructure and road signs makes driving almost impossible.
Tip : Always watch out at roundabouts because you will never know who’s got priority!
And don’t get upset when safe distance while driving is not kept!
That’s how it is!
To get a driving licence in Albania is very easy ! So easy that even though you might not able to pass the exam you still gonna get it by giving some money ‘“under the table” !
Driving in Albania you are in the hands of God!!!!!
@@vasilispapachrysanthou6411 if we do a.comparison btw road deaths per capita with most modern nations and albania it's like day and night. you still have to have your wits about you though as with everything else in a foreign land. true road law enforcement is lacking but i prefer it myself knowing i can get away with speeding or parking in a no standing zone..in very rare cases i have offered money and let go..my kind of place seeing as where i am we are so restricted we are almost drone like....most of the surrounding nations are the same...macedonia, greece..Bulgaria..same!
vasilis papachrysanthou and so is driving in Santorini, you could fall off the cliff lol you probably aren’t used to driving in narrow roads buddy
Only if you're not too careful.
Nice one
Doctor Kristi💪🏾. Are u guys giving away a car in this Video?

Welcome to the land of eagles 🇦🇱🇦🇱and to the land of the Zeus 🇦🇱🇦🇱🇦🇱
It is very very dangerous..
How is it dangerous and different from any other part of the world you have been too 😂? Just curious
@@lindal1982 🤦🤦
Tech through Toni you didn’t answer my question, I am gonna start crying god damm lol lol
🔥🔥🔥❤️
I've driven in like 20 countries. Albania has the worst drivers by far. Not sure Albanians understand what a roundabout is for.
Actually they do know what the roundabout is for, but they get into the attitude that" oh, nobody is following the rules, so I'm not following them either".
The worst thing is that if in other countries there is ONE guy who doesn't follow the rules, in Albania is EVERYBODY. This turns it into a pretty chaos. You are on the edge anytime you drive there.I have given up driving there completely.
Every where in the world is more or less the same ? But Albania it doesn’t believe in stop lights it rather use police everywhere? To me it’s like paranoias it’s like state of emergency every day ?
my mom's been hit by a car and a motorcycle while on her bicycle in Pogradec, so yeah, its not very safe (and this is just in the city xP )... Tirana traffic is nerve wracking
Edge Drew Tirana traffic is bad but so is in many places where people live and work (from experience), I do live in an area where it isn’t a big city and we get many accidents and lots of traffic so nothing new
You just need to drive a bigger, shinier car! Priority seems to go to those!
Why don’t you try cumin to Fier i cen show you around
Me too
The dangerous drivers in Europe overtaking all times in dangers situation
Why did you move to Albania? It is very intriguing.
