How to go and vote?
How to go and vote? Usually the polling station it is not far from your home and the advice is to make yourself a beautiful one walk or in bike to avoid parking problems in case you choose to vote by car. In fact, in this event there are often problems with parking in the streets adjacent to the premises where the polling stations are located.
Another tip is to use it scooter with an eye on forecast to understand if it is not raining: still recommended even if it is cold for those who are equipped against bad weather.
- on foot
- bike
- scooter or motorcycle
- Taxi
- car
- Bus
If you want to avoid it parking problems another solution is the taxi. A taxi ride for a limited distance can be less than a fine. Even if on this particular day the police should be more understanding, it remains that a parking but done or in double file creates safe problems for circulation.
More advice on how to vote is to use the car, but very carefully about where we park. Better away from the seat where you can surely find a quiet place where parking is allowed.
Other means for those who are far away are the train or the plane for which some facilitation is also provided.
