Generally the speed limit is 80, last time I went up to 99 and was fined 240 francs, plus a 35 franc management fee from the car rental company

Speed limit, personal experience, please pay special attention to the speed limit of 80. I got a ticket, caught in St. Gallen area, speed limit of 80km/h, drove 103km/h, more than 6km/h is within the allowed range, the conclusion is speeding 17km/h, fined 180 Swiss francs, plus the management fee of the car rental company 35, the cost of violation is really high. So please pay attention to the speed limit area of 80km/h, because the speed limit of 120km/h is all speeding, without being fined.

Hello fellow car owners, I wonder if any of you have encountered being charged by the car dealership? (Main reason: The other party was fully responsible for the accident, and they had full coverage insurance while we only had basic insurance. When we returned the car, the dealership said the other party would compensate us. Six months later, we received a notification saying that they were investigating whether there were any damages to the car that were not caused by a third party, and then they charged over 10,000 yuan to our credit card. How should we handle this?) ? Switzerland Q&A
