Local driving tips
Driving in Rabat is calmer than Casa, but a few specifics: - Government areas (Mechouar, Hassan, Royal Palace forecourt) — police presence, do not park in red-zoned or military areas - Avenue Mohammed V: highly controlled main artery, 60 km/h speed limit respected - Hay Riad: new business district, modern underground parking (Mahaj Riad, ~10 MAD/h) - Kasbah of the Udayas: do not attempt to drive up, park below - Rush hours: 8-9 AM and 5-7 PM on Mohammed VI Avenue and Bab el-Had - Summer: less stifling than Marrakech (ocean), ideal for visiting - To Casablanca: take the A1 (toll), not the R322 national road (long)
