Never drove there but I imagine it would be fine. The roads are good. I think you may be expected to pick up hitchikers if you are driving. You see a lot of people standing by the side of the road waiting for lifts .....
It's actively encouraged to pick up hitchhikers.
There's an ad that runs on state television that shows a guy rushing to the hospital in his car and ignoring a hitchhiker.
When he gets to the hospital his relative is in bad shit and we're told the hitchhiker was the doctor that could have saved her.
You get the message.
