Requirements
To rent a car, you must be at least 20 years old (age may vary by car category) and have held your license for 1 year. Drivers under the age of 25 may incur a young driver surcharge. Seatbelts are mandatory and child seats are mandatory for children up to age 7.

Speed Limits
Speed limits are as follows:
City - 31mph/50kph,
Open Roads - 50mph/80kph,
Highways - 75mph/120kph.

Tolls
Highways in Switzerland require a toll sticker, which must be displayed on the windscreen by all vehicles. Cars rented in Switzerland have the sticker attached; otherwise you must purchase the sticker separately.

Gas
Most gas stations in Switzerland are open from 8am to 10pm. Some self-service stations accept credit cards and Swiss Francs at the pump.

Parking
Most cities have 'blue zones' that require you to display a parking disc on your dashboard. These discs can be obtained at motor clubs, gas stations and police stations. Parking on the sidewalks is illegal in Switzerland.
