Driving Left-hand traffic, just like in Great Britain. Parking disk for restricted parking areas in St. Anne's. No traffic lights, no roundabouts, no traffic jams. At present, Alderney residents receive free hospital care, but have to pay to see a GP, Dentist, Optician or Physiotherapist. They also have to pay for ambulance services and for the services of a doctor in the Accident and Emergency department.
Drugs prescribed by a medical practitioner are free.
In the event of a UK resident receiving treatment under the Reciprocal Health Convention having to be transferred to the mainland, the patient will be responsible for all travelling expenses incurred. The Reciprocal Health Convention does not apply to persons taking up residence in the island, nor to a person who, as a visitor or employed person, intends to stay, or actually stays in the island for more than three months. The Bailiwick has health care agreements with some other countries, but again these require payment for any medical or dental treatment. Visitors are advised to obtain health insurance cover. Alderney issues its own commemorative coins.
