Road trips are a great way to experience Scotland. Driving in Scotland is on the left side of the road (opposite to the US). This means you need to focus a bit more. Sounds obvious, but if you're driving, don't stop suddenly to take photos. The views are sumptuous and you'll be tempted to admire them at every turn. However, it can be dangerous if you don't follow local traffic laws, including the proper use of single-track lanes. Better still, book yourself a Scotland tour and sit back and enjoy the views while your experienced local driver takes you around.
