To drive in New Zealand as a tourist, you need a valid driver's licence in English. If your licence is not in English, you must have an international driving permit or an approved translation. Follow road rules, wear seat belts, avoid phone use while driving, and adhere to speed limits. Don't drive under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Be mindful of road conditions and take breaks to prevent fatigue. Check specific requirements with the official New Zealand transport authority before your trip.
