The condition of roads in Kashmir is not comparable to countries like Germany. Except on the highway, plan an average travel speed of 30 km/h. Especially if you’re riding a scooty or motorcycle be aware of larger holes in the road, and of unmarked speed bumpers. Roads are usually used by cars, trucks, auto-rickshaws, motorcyclists, cyclists and people walking at the same time, so drive carefully, and honk whenever you overtake someone, since people might not be looking into the backmirror. Also be aware that people may overtake you from both the left and the right side.
