In the items menu(R2 on PS4, or RT on Xbox One), if you move your control stick to the right you'll be able to access the whistles menu. Here you can call your long lost Chocobo. This is very useful as most of the time you'll probably lose track of where you left your it or it'll disappear somehow.

Getting over things FFXV
This method was used a lot in Kingdom Hearts and seems to prove useful in Final Fantasy XV. Simply jump and then attack while facing something you want to get over and Noctis will be able to make it over. Do keep in mind this doesn't work on everything but it does for most roads.

5. Infinite sprinting

Infinite Sprinting FFXV
To sprint without exhaustion, hit the button to sprint until it reaches the S on the stamina bar. Once it does, hit it again and you'll notice Noctis turn green for a second and you'll keep sprinting. It'll take some practice to be able to do it every time, and it doesn't work while in combat.
