Essential Driving Tips for Germany

  • Autobahn and Speed Limits: Sections of the Autobahn have no official speed limits, but it’s recommended to drive at 130 km/h for safety. In urban areas, speed limits are typically 50 km/h, and on secondary roads, it’s generally 100 km/h.
  • Right of Way: At intersections without signals, vehicles coming from the right have the right of way. Be mindful of this, especially in urban areas.
  • Overtaking on the Left: Always overtake on the left side of the Autobahn and highways. Passing on the right is prohibited and could result in fines.
  • Parking and Environmental Zones: In many city centers, parking requires a ticket from a Parkscheinautomaten (ticket machine). Additionally, several cities have Umweltzonen (environmental zones), where only vehicles with an Umweltplakette (emission sticker) are allowed.
  • Driving Conditions by Season:
    • Winter: Winter tires are mandatory in snowy regions, especially in the Alps and Black Forest. Consider renting an AWD vehicle for added safety.
    • Summer: Convertibles are popular for driving through scenic routes under sunny skies.

Top tips when hiring a car in Germany

  • Drive on the right-hand side of the road in Germany, speed limits are in Km/h
  • Early Booking: Book your rental car as early as possible to secure the best rates. Early spring, particularly March, is often cheaper for car rentals in Germany.

  • Pick-up and Drop-off Flexibility: Consider the flexibility of picking up and dropping off the rental car at different locations. While this may incur an extra fee, it allows for more extensive travel across the country and even internationally between certain cities.

  • Safety and Regulations: Germany is known for its safety and high-quality roads. However, be aware of your surroundings, especially in tourist areas to prevent petty crimes like pickpocketing. Also, familiarize yourself with local driving regulations, including speed limits and environmental zones which require a special sticker for your car.

  • Car Requirements: Ensure that the rental car meets all legal requirements, such as having winter tires during the appropriate season and carrying a warning triangle and a first-aid kit. Additionally, if you plan to drive a diesel car, be aware of restrictions in certain cities.
