My wife [and her family] are from Italy and have driven over here in the States a number of times. The only thing they can't seem to understand is why American drivers use the left lane on the highway when they aren't passing; and that faster cars sometimes pass using the right lane(s). Either of these is a profound no-no over there.

Other than that, and our dreadfully low speed limits on the highways (by comparison), driving here is about the same as driving there. They'll be fine.

Note: if they look Italian/Mediterranean/Sardinian and go driving in Arizona, they may well be followed and profiled by law enforcement. It's happened to my bride each of the 4 times she's been in there. Keep the passports handy.

Best,

Cameron
