On the Croatian side the nearest larger towns are Vinkovci and Vukovar; on the Serbian side it is Šid, from where the road continues towards Belgrade.

The slower direction is Croatia to Serbia: usually about two and a half hours, shortest on Tuesday and longest on Saturday, with night being the best time of day.

The worst time is weekend lunchtime, with peaks on Saturday and Sunday around 12:00–13:00.

If you are returning to Croatia, aim for the start of the week or for the night and avoid weekend middays. When leaving for Serbia the time of day changes little, so it is mostly about which day you pick.
