What are your top Florence Driving/Parking Tips?

I'll be staying near Montespertoli the first week of November and will have a car. I plan to drive into Florence during the day and at night.

I've read all the "official" info about driving and parking in the region, but I wanted to get insight from actual travelers and natives.

What are your top personal tips you would give?

First, coming from Montespertoli into Florence is a beautiful drive - if you have the time, come in from the country roads and don't take the FI PI LI.

There is actually some free parking now at the Piazzale Michelangelo. That is my top tip to you - come in on the route of the map in the link below, and don't get close to the city and the ZTL (see links below) etc. Parking up there is great - there is a taxi stand, a bus, and you can walk it down also which is actually quite easy.
