Public roads are managed by VJK and the province's government. VJK takes care of highways, expressways and national roads while the province government takes care of local roads.
Kwitzka, like most European countries, drives on the right.
== Road network ==
The road network in Kwitzka is dense with roads in the western and northern parts of the country, and is rather sparse in eastern and southern parts of the country. Highways are indicated by the A letter, expressways by S, and national roads can be identified by it having no letters in front of it and being 2 numbers long, while the local roads are 3 to 4 numbers long. The local roads have their own province indicators, while most other numbers have no meaning (A11, S31 and S32 are 2 numbers despite being a highway / expressway since they're connecting to their main road, such as S31, which connects to S3 via the A1 highway).
The country has only two highways, the A1 highway from the Baylandese border near Ëbxöq to the border near Qälqtnix and the A11 bypass of Nqlät. The country has 4 primary expressways and 2 secondary expressways (S31 and S32), located in western and northern Kwitzka. National roads are more common, being scattered around the country. Local roads are generally seen everywhere, though their state can vary drastically from being in a great state to being in a dire state.
Various roads cross the country's border to Lustar and Bayland. They can be all road types, from local roads to highways.

== Traffic ==
Traffic in Kwitzka can be very high and aggressive in large cities during rush hour (especially Tereffút), but the traffic laws are usually respected due to high fines. High traffic and congestion in some places of Kwitzka are usually related to high car ownership (especially Öqqlät with 1003 vehicles per 1000 people) and occasional lack of good public transport (especially Öqqlät).
== Gas and service stations ==
At the gas stations Pb sign is used for unleaded gasoline (leaded gasoline is banned in Kwitzka), and JO or Diesel being used for diesel. LPG is usually available in larger settlements and along large roads.

The largest gas service chains operated in Kwitzka are AVIA and Polish Orlen.
== Toll roads ==
Toll roads aren't common in Kwitzka, with only parts of A1 being such roads.
The longest toll road in Kwitzka is the A1 highway in Nqlät, starting from where the A11 bypass splits to where it merges back with the road. The toll is in place to encourage through traffic to use the A11 highway and residents of Nqlät to use the city's well-developed public transport instead. The toll has been introduced in 2009 and has reduced traffic by 40%.
The second toll segment on the A1 highway is in Ytqinop, where cars not registered in Ytqinop or its pöwiät (MY and MYA registration plates) will be forced to pay up to 12,50Ap upon leaving the highway in either a public service building or on the Möj app, being fined 500Ap if the fine has not been payed within 24 hours as long as it was possible to do so (if a person doesn't have the Möj app and all nearby post offices / police stations are closed, the deadline is extended by 24 hours for each full day the fine isn't settled). The system was set up in 2014 to reduce the number of car visitors in the city and encourage the use of railway. Road traffic during summer seasons decreased by almost 20% and rail traffic was increased by 50%.
== License plates in Kwitzka ==
License plates in Kwitzka are formed of 2-3 letters and 4-5 letters or numbers. The letters are chosen based on the province and the pöwiät / city, while the numbers and letters in the second part of the license plate are random. For example, a license plate in Zwihlön, Sënnägläfi province would be SZ-128JT, and in Kheghluqtixh, Ëestniq province it would be EK-2138K. The letters O, B and I are not used in the second part of the registration plate to not be confused with numbers.
