The car rental agency has a map of Europe showing which countries are allowed to reach. The white parts are the countries that can go, and the yellow parts are the countries that cannot go. Many countries in Eastern Europe are not allowed to go by Hertz, only Croatia, Slovakia, Poland, and Austria can go, please see the picture. Bulgaria was not allowed to go last time, and it is said that vehicle theft is serious in Eastern Europe.

Hello, I rented a car in Germany to Austria and the Czech Republic, and then back to Germany. Caro company told me that I needed to buy a pass to go to the Czech Republic and Austria. On my way to Austria and the Czech Republic, I did not buy a highway ticket (I asked at the gas station on the way to the Czech Republic if they sold passes, and they said no). Now I am already in the Czech Republic. Do I need to buy one on the way back to Germany ? Germany Q&A

In Germany, there is a fine of 30 euros for illegal parking, which was paid by transferring the money to a local Chinese person. After returning the car, a notification was received that the full deposit of 1000 euros would be refunded within an hour. Recently, an email was received, which seems to be a charge of 24 euros from the car rental company. Is this the so-called penalty management service fee? How can this be transferred in China, and what are the consequences if it is not paid? Does anyone know ? Germany Q&A

Violations generally do not receive information so quickly, unless they are fines issued on the spot. The pre-authorized deduction should be part of the fees charged by the car rental company other than the car rental. Please carefully check the bill to see if there are any fees that you did not notice. The car rental company will not help you handle violations, so they will not pre-authorize fees to handle them ?

Some people are willing to save tens of yuan a day, carefully checking scratches when picking up and returning the car, and paying first and then claiming compensation when an accident occurs. Some people are willing to spend money to save trouble, leaving the keys and walking away after returning the car. It's just a matter of personal habit ? Germany Q&A
