Help, on June 22nd, I was driving in Germany from Berlin to Munich and the King's Lake. When I rented the car, there was a pre-authorization of 124 euros. After returning to my country, I checked at the end of July and found that it had been unfrozen, so I thought everything was fine. However, on August 6th, the bank called me and informed me that there was a pre-sale right of around 29 points, which they said was the handling fee of the car rental company. It should be due to a traffic violation, and the German police will send a notice of violation to the address I provided in my country. I don't know how to pay the fine. Also, the address I provided is my driver's license address, which has been demolished, so I won't be able to receive any notification. How can I pay the fine, and what are the consequences if I don't pay it ? Germany Q&A
Can I ask all the enthusiastic group members, our old couple is planning to go to Berlin on June 10th by CA931, with a connecting flight CA6007 in Frankfurt airport (which is LH44) during the period. The connection time is two hours. Has anyone taken this flight before? Is the luggage directly delivered to Berlin? We asked the customer service of Air China, but they were not sure. Can I ask about the transfer process in Frankfurt? We both can't speak foreign languages, and we are worried that two hours is not enough ? Germany Q&A
Is there a package to choose from? When renting a car in the United States, there is a package that pays 33 US dollars and returns the car with an empty fuel tank, which is very convenient. Are there any cheap packages to buy in advance in 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
Thanks, but 1000 km is still cross-border, I can only think about it. I'd better drive from Munich to Cologne, turn around and run a part of the Black Forest trip. I leave for Berlin on July 15 and pick up the car in Munich on the 17th. I will take two boys with me. Do you have any friends who are traveling together by chance ? Germany Q&A
When driving abroad, it is essential to fully understand the traffic rules of the destination country. If you are fined, you should inquire about which laws and regulations you have violated, learn from the experience to avoid repeating the offense in the future. If you do not reflect on your own violations and instead confront the situation with 'why am I being fined and not others, I must be treated unfairly,' then you will continue to make the same mistakes. Your mindset will be distorted, and what should have been a pleasant Road trip will turn into a tragedy ? Germany Q&A
Dear seniors, I got a parking ticket for 40 Swiss francs in Interlaken, Switzerland when I parked illegally after picking up my car at Munich airport in Germany. I only saw the ticket when I returned the car. Now I don't know how to handle it ? Germany Q&A

Additionally, I need to transit through Italy to Switzerland and then return to Munich and Shanghai. Will my German authentication document + German embassy stamp be useful in Switzerland and Italy? Will insurance be able to compensate in case of an accident in Italy and Switzerland ? 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 ? Germany Q&A
Excuse me, how long will it take to receive the fine notice sent by the car rental company after returning the car if there is an infraction? Will it be sent by email or bill to domestic ? Germany Q&A
Driving in Germany by car in July. This week, I received a notice of violation from Europcar, saying that there was a violation in Stuttgart and 30 euros would be deducted from my credit card. Have any of you friends encountered similar situations? How should I deal with it? Just wait for him to deduct it? Is this amount a fine or a service fee from the car rental company? I ask for everyone's advice ? Germany Q&A
If I buy full insurance, do I need to call the police when an accident occurs or my car is scratched? Do I have to go through an oath certification procedure? If the driver at the time of the accident is not me, but my husband, can I still claim for compensation ? Germany Q&A
Can you tell me that I paid the deposit with my domestic credit card in Europcar in Germany. It has been a week since I returned the car, but the deposit has not been credited in time. Today, when I asked the rental company, they told me that the deposit has been unlocked. What's going on? And the bank shows "deduction" instead of block ? Germany Q&A
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
