So you really want to drive in Israel? You’ve read this, and checked out the reality of driving in Israel, and the keys are just about to go into the ignition, despite your psychiatrist’s best advice…OK, it’s not that terrifying an experience but just be prepared to be totally gobsmacked by some of the other drivers out there on the roads.
We’ve grabbed a few driving in Israel clips from YouTube to give you a bit of a taste of life on the roads in the Holy Land. Unfortunately, or probably fortunately, we couldn’t find any really action-packed, stomach churning winners, but have found a few to keep you interested.
This first one is a quick clip of the Tel Aviv freeway, joining it at the Shalom intersection until the exit at the Exhibition Grounds (Ganei Tarucha).
This next clip shows how to drive down one of Tel Aviv’s busiest and most central streets – Dizengoff.
This third clip shows the full Tel Aviv freeway experience, from start to finish. Enjoy some Israeli radio in the background.
This last clip shows a time-lapse movie of the drive from Jerusalem to Tel Aviv – quite a drive in under 2 minutes!
