Sudden rainstorms are common — drive carefully and avoid flooded roads
Street parking downtown is metered; use parking apps for the best spots
Houston's vast freeway network connects all major areas — know your exits early
Many routes use electronic tolls — ask your host if the car has a TxTag or EZ TAG
